2010 Ford Tarus Sho
« on: August 02, 2009, 02:43:00 AM »
Damn,i dont know what to say, not to hot of a car, but not bad a at all look at. But under the hood is a twin turbo 3.5 liter engine that they claim puts out 365hp. can you believe that? its a GTR style sedan, minus the sporter GTR style. but still twin turbo 6? crazy, and it starts at 36K. not a bad price tag.

Hey Yuri! What would it matter on the turbo to test drive it?  So you're a retired what? A little young. The cops here just certified a bunch of young Russian thugs as the first soviet block gang in California. If you're not aware it carries with the moniker a steeper sentencing. Any way , trivia.  Gus.

1) slushbox = bad
2) slushbox with paddle shift = even worse

Autos can be pepped up and be faster than a manual and are better with turbos anyway.

Hey Guys!  It's a start! Maybe next year will find a true paddleshifting manual trans. Then we can start to glean parts and adapt to our Capris.  Gus

Sequential turbos, via RX 7, Supra, Porsche! boost from idle to red line whats not to like about that? Beats Two turbos so small the charge is overheated at red line or so big the boost won't come on until 3K?
