But turbo doesn't sound good, has lag and is not responsive. Also, if the FT-86 is light it does not need 400 Nm. Too much "kick-in-the-ass" torque would make the rear wills spin even in third gear and the car will be controlable but unstable when grip is needed.

Says who? BMW and VAG certainly disagrees with you....
Never heard a T51R supra before? Youtube that for some turbo bliss! Quote:
Although not turbo, drive an Lotus Elise and an Elise supercharged back to back and then tell me which is better. And these cars are way lighter than the FT86 will ever be! |

I think all we need is a VERY tiny turbo.
That way people that want larger turbo can go bigger easier. And those that don't want kicking torque will not be mad about it. What I REALLY would smile about is if it was a twin tiny turbos |

A thread from 1 year, 4 months and 2 days ago. You get 15 interweb points for knowing how to use the search function... But what the heck were you looking for?
