Short clip of Evo 6 (road going!!) with anti-lag, in garage :shock: :lol: Gives an idea of the noise and flames to be expected whilst on full boil! http://www.adrmotorsport.com/Video/MOV01323.MPG

i think there's more of a difference between dump valves and anti-lag than that guys!! no that technically minded, but doesn't anti-lag actually inject petrol into the turbo, plus there's something else to keep the boost up? i really don't think they are that similar (DVs & A/L). i know that ADR Motorsport in Chesterfield are developing a quiet road-legal A/L for Mitsubishi Evos. They have already fitted a full noisy A/L to an Evo VII, and it's wicked!! Still, i love the "whoosh" on a DV - but it can be a bit of a bore after a while :oops:

OOOh! Can we get some vid clips as soon as someone fits one to hear the noise please? Use a vid phone, that'll do. Haven't heard a DV for years, and i love em!!

Any other planned changes ??

ESP will apply a brake to any indicidual wheel or a combination ofwheels, plus can vary the amount of traction to the driven wheels if it senses things are losing grip. There are a number of sensors in the brakes, suspension and steering, coupled toa computer monitoring the speed with all of the other inputs, and brakes a little here and there if things start going "light".

If you're a good driver you can correct a potentil problem much better than ESP ever could. Just drive normally with it. It's basically an advanced traction control. If you're driving fully on the boil you'll want to turn it off as it detracts from the true driving experience. Don't be fooled into thinking you can be invincible if the car has ESP - i made that mistake once and nearly had a big off. It's most handy when it's * * * *ing down is what i've found. Like isaid, drive as you normally would, if thongs get a little twitchy, ESP will make it less so, if you need a handfull ofoppositeloc

I'm sorry for the link, now been edited to include the quote. People will need to be real enthusiasts to want to pay top dollar for some of these RSs

can't really imagine the RS being a collector's car. many models plagued with problems and let's face it, the technology is not exactly cutting edge. Check the link here about RS prices :lol: EDIT: QUOTE "Over the last month the min price of a Focus Rs has dropped from £15500 to about 13k, loads on autotrader in the 13's now and thats not just the high milers, theres a few minters on there for £13995."

I have a Fiesta on priv as my bro' works for Ford. He knows of a guy that has received a warning for selling a car before 9 months old and was lucky not to be thrown off the privilege scheme. It really isn't for abusing(!).

I'm sure that the spec of components (definitely the source at least) will be different on eastern-built models. That would worry the pants off me especially considering the quality problems of the euro-built cars (unless the eastern made ones were better quality (!) :lol: :lol: Get some pictures posted up 8)

That's fewking stunning!!! I didn't notice the "photochop" quote when i first looked at it and dtrated getting excited, asit's clearly n official Ford vehicle (from the plate) SMART AS Fkkk!!!! I WANT ONE JUST LIKE IT :lol:

Cheers SMJOHNS & TOMTOM70 :D

How about the "better" ST :lol:

Good tip - it's got to be worth an extra £82 surely!

I agree. Do the parts have FINIS listings i wonder (due to the fact they are built at the Chinese plant)?? I like the chrome grille especially.
