Esprit 3.5 twin turbo? Surely the V8 Esprit was NA from the factory? Twin turbo must have been epic.

Re: tvr meet sywell
The V8 twin turbo did come from the factory on the later models & i think that engine recieved a little negative feedback when it came out for not sounding that great considering what it was, there is certainly little arguement to how well it went though!carl wrote:Esprit 3.5 twin turbo?

To be honest though...I think you would need to be spending in excess of £100 to get anything with the sound of a TVR...fooking Epic they areLeeZ4MR wrote:The V8 twin turbo did come from the factory on the later models & i think that engine recieved a little negative feedback when it came out for not sounding that great considering what it was, there is certainly little arguement to how well it went though!carl wrote:Esprit 3.5 twin turbo?

Re: tvr meet sywell
I have always wanted an esprit loads & the V8 was a good rival to the Cerbera at the time, i have never heard the esprit engine myself, i was just going on what i had read in magazines, i love the shape & the snug cockpit of the esprit, people in the know have told me that lotus & TVR are very similar in alot of ways... i hope these are the good reasons!!Hunter wrote:To be honest though...I think you would need to be spending in excess of £100 to get anything with the sound of a TVR...fooking Epic they areLeeZ4MR wrote:The V8 twin turbo did come from the factory on the later models & i think that engine recieved a little negative feedback when it came out for not sounding that great considering what it was, there is certainly little arguement to how well it went though!carl wrote:Esprit 3.5 twin turbo?

Re: tvr meet sywell
Sywell meets are now every second sunday lunchtime either in the very big car park just after the Aviator entrance or in the small park at the Aviator bar/resturant. Its a tvr meet but quite a few people have other cars now including a countach , a gtr and a black z4 mc - me ! Hope to be there on the 14th oct.
