the question really is who would be driving the CGT b/c you know your car well, chances are they don't know their car yet.

He would take you pretty easily. The first time you shifted, he would be gone.

I don't know about a Stage 4, but Ruf are quoting 0-200kph in 9.9 seconds for their Nardo conversion, which is rated at 590bhp (dynoed at 630bhp in practice).

This is identical to the CGT figures, but with a 218mph topspeed it would pull away from the CGT which had a high drag and only reaches 205mph.

I wonder how a GT2 with a 600bhp-ish conversion would compare, being even lighter..................

Mmmmmmmmmmmm...........

Sorry Guy,

Their is no way 590 or 630 bhp or crank hp will perform at those figures. Rear wheel hp which would be much much more crank hp would be barely believable given ideal road, barometric and weather conditions. 0-124 mph in 9.9 seconds with a little over 500 rwhp???

Who cares ? As if the C-GT owner couldn't afford to build a fast Turbo to add to his stable if that were his thing ?

Chad,

Since you now have all this experience building turbo motors, I think it's only fitting that you have the first (and probably only ever) turbo CGT

CJV,

Thats what Ruf were quoting for their Nardo car and I believe their figures all have to be TuV approved. The 218mph was achieved at Nardo test-track hence the name.

I think the reason Ruf get good figures is they tune for torque, not just power.

I think it's also possible due to:

CGT 605bhp & 1380kg = 438bhp/ton

Ruf Nardo 630bhp & 1440kg = 437bhp/ton

CGT 435lb ft torque, Ruf Nardo 612 lb ft

CGT Cd is much higher due to set-up for high down-force.

I've seen the test article somewhere, but can't find it right now......

Guy
