Lots, DP engineering stuff aint cheap.

Hes selling the engine at the mo for 6500 i think. (one in OP)

Why the hell you would pee all that money up the wall to make such a flawed concept a reality is beyond me but each to their own I suppose. That much bhp through RWD needs skill and engineering prowess trying to put it through the front wheels is to my mind madness.

He's the owner of a tuning company for saxos/106s so probably just a demo of what he can achieve from a std engine tbh.

Daft, not as daft as this 500+ bhp saxo though (still from the 1.6)

As you can see, still daft wheelspin into three figures. Useless but I'd still like a go in one

That Saxo is mental. I would love something that fast. Although the poster reckons 450bhp. Not like it matters.

Ah right, that makes a little more sense I suppose.

Is that thing production? Never knew there was a 106 T16. Saw a 205 T16 at a car show and is by far the most mental hatchback i have ever seen.

Props to the 106 though. Tasteful exterior with the cyclones and one hell of a build to get that much power from a 1.6. Then again the french have always known how to make good engines (Shame about the rest

).

I'm sure the 1.6 is an XU lump, but they are all tough little engines.

Edit, just checked and they are all TU units. Didn't realise they went up to 1.6.

Great music in the chase car, all it needed to be better is for them to crash into a lead wall.

106 looks MENTAL *In welsh accent*

Duke · 13 Oct 2008 at 13:44

I like how he's kept it looking more or less stock from the outside.

Does he not have signals then?

Gilly · 13 Oct 2008 at 16:39

That's twice today I've been subjected to that song

I had to turn the video off as soon as I recognised the 'music'.

Anders0n · 13 Oct 2008 at 16:55

GT3 doesn't that thing have NOS?

Trying to find the vids of this yellow 500bhp+ 106 in greece, having no luck so far though.
