XUD powered kit car

[Xud Missile]

thats the bit you desperately need to mod for this car...mod the gov, up the fuel and boost and see 5,500rpm!

looking and sounding awesome by the way

Yeah you're right about gov modding, I'll get on that soon

It sounds great in the drivers seat, the exhaust tip is right next to me so you can hear all the turbo sounds. According to people who aren't in the car it's not very loud even with the straight through exhaust. It must just appear to be as I'm sitting about a foot from the end of the exhaust.

One chap who used to share our workshop with us had a 205 1.8 diesel NA, his exhaust fell off and he had to get home without it, it was hilariously loud, could hear him for about 2 miles. Quite cool how much the turbo silences things, not sure how much that changes when putting a bigger turbo on though

Took the car to Newark kit car show at the weekend, I went on the rainy of the 2 days so turnout wasn't great, although i've seen it a lot worse in the past.


Also took it to Ashby Folville. There people were looking round it, asking questions and chatting to me for ages, really nice friendly meet up. At the kit car show people would walk around it silently before wandering off. May have touched a nerve
