rowlando 0 Posted September 20, 2007 Report Share Posted September 20, 2007 i find the VR is very subtle, if the badge hasnt been noticed and they havent heard you because of other traffic noise... its easy to surprise a few drivers ! Link to post Share on other sites

craggsy 91 Posted September 20, 2007 Report Share Posted September 20, 2007 But torque on a 4 cyl car is always gonna be a let down unless its got FI of some sort. So the VR should pull away from a focus st170 Link to post Share on other sites

So the VR should pull away from a focus st170ppl make too much of that yes the engine doesnt make much torque but putting shorter gear ratios in it increases the torque at the wheels which is where it matters Link to post Share on other sites
