Thumbs up GTT website update....

Yes Roland... if i was forced to find one complaint with GTT it would be that your website is not complete with all your new GTT parts. I often show the GTT website to fellow octane heads and it is a shame all your hard work is not up in lights

Saying that, your products are totally excellent - designed, constructed, tested, fitted, and supported all in house. Now that is something to shout about. I don't even think Ford does that right???

Cheers,
K.

Your right there Karl, our website is sometimes the last place to find new GTT products. Check out M2 GT Tuning Forum & Modern Mini mag for them first .

Hi karl. Your car must be very quick to keep up with a lambo. My dads got the e60 bmw m5 507bhp. My cooper s is at 230bhp and im always trying to race him and theres no chance. I just cant keep up. You sure yours isnt pushing out 300

It's never been measured, but if i remeber Roland saying, my car felt like the quickest of the cars he's modded in this way. The low end torque is just stupid - it can wheel spin in 3rd when the tyres are cold ish!!! I'm getting the stage 4 head fitted in feb, at which point i will be RRing it just out of interest. Who know's sometimes car parts just work really well together and you end up getting more than you'd planned. I mean, look at Rolands GTT350T - that puts out 391BHP - now that IS awesome !!!!! MUAH !

During the Lambo burst, i was lucky enough to have excellent suspension, chassis rigidity, and 12 inch 911 twin turbo Porsche calipers with 341mm rotors - which meant i could also out brake him - i know this sounds really stupid, but it was true. I'm sure the guy took it back to the showroom after the event

....for me, this is a pefect testimant to the achivements coming out of the GTT garage

Cheers,
K.

I'd expect it's for Roland to advertise that detail

Cheers,

Cool Pricing (GTT2xx vs GT280QS vs GTT300T)

Quote: Originally Posted by uncle albert (original)

James

Taken from page one, post one...

Based on the GTT300T conversion , but utililizing a slightly smaller Garrett Ball Bearing turbo for awesome mid range punch . Also uses the same GTT tubular manifold, same GTT 'equal cooling' electric water pump system and more. One difference is it will use our GTT 16 tube top mount intercooler to reduce cost and allow aircon to be retained . It will also use our GTT Cold Ram Induction Kit, the 'cat section ' of our GTT 2pc cat-manifold,our large Throttle Body and our injectors.....all items that many of you already have as part of a GTT220-240 package or have purchased seperatly.

No doubt in addition it would also use any Stage 1,2,3,4 Head you have, Cam Shaft, Oil Catch Can, 40Kv Coil Pack, Live Wire leads, etc.

This means the price quoted above would be reduced considerably if you are already a GTT owner of some sorts.

It would also be very easy to upgrade to the GT300T package when funds permit.

The QS without any price reduction from GTT parts already fitted is approx £2.5k below that of the GT300T (i think )

So all in all, a very competitive pricing scheme, with benefits given to existing owners/customers

Jeeez, you'd think i worked there !!! (no, i don't )

"280" and "300" are the bhp estimated on the base package too, so it you start enhancing it with heads and cams etc you'll get far more power for your bucks ! as was the case with the 391bhp Roland got !!! - now that is worth remembering

Cheers,
K.
