my new car (not quite a skyline)
Posted: Sat Jul 14, 2007 6:10 pm
due to the extreme impracticality of the mighty shed, i bought myself a new company car lastnight.
i present to you the MIGHTY FROG - Peugeot 306 TDiesel. 1.9 litres of rapeseed chugging power. kicking out a mighty 92bhp and 145lb.ft (so thats only 208bhp and 170lb.ft less than the shed...), it has the wheels chirping in 2nd gear and has more than enough grunt to pull the skin off a rice pudding.
civic owners, watch out! im coming for you
as standard it runs around 1bar of boost, this is easily tweaked to around 1.2bar although if i want to run more i will have to relocate the existing intercooler to the front. that isnt going to happen tho as i need this car to be ultra reliable. as part of my job i am often away from home for weeks at a time, commuting between sites etc. hopefully ill be able to sell it for as much as i bought it for next year and get a cushy diesel 3 series BMW.
[apologies for posting up about a diesel car btw!]
