God, I so want one of these.
Can a turbo'd engine also be Supercharged? (I'm thinking of a Vectra or Insignia VXR conversion??!!)
Bathurst edition Vectra anyone? lol

I think the Maloo is just awesome. I would love one of those

i know the owner of the VXR8, and top gear burnt out the clutch and both back tyres, and JC also scuffed 2 of the wheels that was at my work for refurbs

yes a supercharged engine can also be turbocharged,one of the problems with the supervharger is does use power,but it gives boost all the time,there was a car that had both,the supercharger worked at low revs with the turbo working at high revs,the supercharger was only driven upto a certain rpm so giving the best of both worlds,vw are develping one click_me and here is the car click_me and me

Nice, so I can get a Vectra VXR, or Insignia VXR, and then supercharge them so they sound like the bathurst VXR8
Simples.
