I have talked to the guy, he is from sweden like im am, he has exhoust from cargrafic and a BMC in stock airbox, nothing more

Sick vid I would say that maybe the 430 driver just sucks which is very possible haha. I think the bigger thing that is being overlooked here though is that Allan is almost defending ferrari right now. THAT IS INSANE HE HATES FERRARI!!! Just thought I would point that out.

There is NO WAY that GT2 has 550 hp. youre telling me an exhaust(just mufflers) and a filter are going to give it 95 hp. NO WAY! It might have has 475 hp if your optomistic. where it really stands out is with its massive torque. even a slight GT2 will begin to pull away although not as hard as it did in the video. it WALKED the 430 in the video, stock for stock will give a slight edge to the GT2.

Show us some dynos of a stock F430 that bests 430rwhp.
As a matter of fact bone stock 430F1 dynoed 435rwhp with 2300 miles on it. I dont have the dyno on this computer, but you can check with Alex at Sp Engineering whom many of you know.

Which is also what I had indicated that this is a EURO car, and is most likley not running any cats either.

I don't think its any suprise that a stock GT2 can pull away from the F430. A stock GT3 would be a closer race.

Best Motoring videos are best for entartainment, not real figures. A 430 will dust a Gt3.

A Murcielago, A ford Gt, A Z06.

Who cares if this GT2 is stock or not. Everyone knows the potential of a modded GT2 and that the majority of GT2s out there will have at least exhaust or/and ECU mods. If one chooses to line up against it, one will have to face consequences.

besides that fact that porsche seriously underrated the hp on the gt2 to begin with before even starting to argue with the ding dongs that have never driven a gt2 let alone a 430, let alone the z06 troll group.... damn facts and figure warriors out there drive me nuts...
