3rd gen twin turbo snippet

[image: Posted Image]

saw this scan of a magazine clipping. Apparently it's a 3rd gen VFR with a twin turbo.
It's not in english (it looks Scandinavian), but what I can surmise is that it's 300hp(??)

anyone know anything about it? google doesn't give me much.

300 HP!!!??? :blink:

Maybe I'm just getting old, but that does NOT seem like a good idea. I know VFR motors are beefy and all but with those kind of numbers they're going to end up blowing that poor little motor to pieces.

Turns out it's Swedish. Here's Google's translation of the last couple of sentences of the first paragraph:


Dual turbochargers and fuel injection with computer-operated eight outlets are making this monster around 250 horses, without intercooler. With it has not yet delivered laddluftkylet must offer nearly 300 horsepower.



I think 'laddluftkylet' means intercooling.

Quick answer: yes this is a repost.

Psh. I think Toro's system could kick this one's ass AND be more reliable.

Where in the world do they put it? After installing the CC on mine, I don't think I'm creative enough to "massage" anything else in there. This thing is WAY bigger than my CC.

They carved out most of the fuel tank to make room for the turbo stuff. And it must put out a ton of heat right onto your lap. Neat but impractical.

I'd rather have a supercharger, thank you.
