Autocar UK - Fensport AVO GT86 vs. McLaren MP4-12C
Steve Sutcliffe tests Fensport's Toyota GT86 Turbo, then drives the firm's bare-knuckle turbocharged race car. And pits it against a McLaren 12C to see how fast a GT86 can really go.
http://www.autocar.co.uk/car-video/v...claren-mp4-12c Fensport is the authorized AVO distributor in the UK. They sell, install, and tune the AVO turbocharger kit for the FR-S and BRZ, and has been having great success with it on their Toyota Sprint Series GT86R. You can visit their website here: http://fensport.co.uk/ More about the AVO turbocharger kit can be found here: http://www.ft86club.com/forums/showthread.php?t=13156 Youtube video: [ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ut55yR2Yu8M"]New Toyota GT86 TURBO vs McLaren MP4-12C - YouTube[/ame] |

It's amazing how much recognition and respect the 86 has received. Thanks for the share, it's awesome to see the AVO kit toe to toe with the best!

I don't know what's worse, excessive slides in every other corner or hysterical laughter of the driver.

That car was set up way too loose (is that element for show only?) & it needs bigger rims/tires. It would have been a good bit quicker like this.

If you were just looking at ultimate setup with no rules or regulations involved, it certainly could be specced and set up to go faster. |

Just an update from Adrian at Fensport:
"The car set its lap time on 245 new toyo r888 and the video was made using worn out 225s and drifting just for fun!" |
