    Sounds like bull**** to me

    I got a text the other day from someone offering me his Corsa B C20LET as a swap.

    I'm not a drag racing or turbo expert but his figures seem a bit over the top.

    According to him it does 11s at santa pod and made 322bhp at 8 psi

    I didn't bother wasting my time with him but I bet if I asked him what turbo hes running he would say the standard one lmao

    Well it hasn't got 322bhp then, it's got 220bhp which is what 8psi would give you, and a ****ing great big shot of nitrous.

    Either way, sounds like a dick - it's not you is it Nemesis?

    How come everyone selling a car like this or a Subaru says it has 420bhp (or whatever) yet when you ask them for proof the best you get in reply is 'i bort dis ov my m8 an he put a big exorst an stuf on it an it duz 300mph', and **** like that?
    There's only one Andy Morrell, only one Andy Morrell. With a packet of sweets and a cheeky smile, Morell is a paedophile.

    I thought you'd pick up on the subtle interplay of words I melded around the info.

    I went to look at a WRX last week with a view to breaking it, Advertised with "Over 320bhp" and "everything done to it"

    Got there expecting a big turbo, front mount, equal manifolds etc to find it completely standard with just an ebay airfilter.

    The bloke wanted a grand for it and his bartering point was "not any less with all the stuff done to it". Couldnt help but tell him it was actually standard and walked away.
