desktop at home sucks so I must post images when I return to my living quarter of health subcenter

dynograph (44.4kg.m = 323.5ft.lb) (315ps = 310hp)

torque graph looks declining too much because vertical axes of torque and power are set in different ratio.

Very nice and clean looking Lacetti!! I like your choice of rims! Their style flows nicely with the lines of the car. I also see darkened (??) front headlamps, and automatic door mirrors (turning to the car with the ignition off)

And I am sure the ECU conversion would be an intersting topic...would you mind elaborating a little?

Thx for compliment
I didn't think white wheels match with silver car, but I like them now

about ECU converting,
Siemens SAM2000 is very good method to modify ignition period and fuel injection
in fact, it's the only way for accurate control of GM engine in Korea.
SAM2000 calibration kit is very common here, so the situation makes sense.

I don't know exact way to convert...
everything I know is," must use sensors of Beta engine"
the most important thing is to find who can handle SAM2000.

if you request further information, I will ask special M what to do for converting.

That is one very nice and tidy car. I actually really like it. Good job on the engine too :O 300bhp, very nice indeed.

I think those wheels really set the car off too. If you're unhappy with the colour, just paint them, but i think they'rwe really nice as they are
Love car's like this, not overkill, no big ugly body kits etc. Keep it up m8, lovely car,

Nice ride! I have an Optra Turbo. How long have you been driving the car with it putting out 300+ hp? Really nice work man, I would like to see more pics.

[LacettiGT]

exist3nce // optra turbo syndicate! I've been riding it for 5000km. No problem with engine, just gearbox breakdown

300hp with stock pistons has been verified for about 1 year. Nubira 2.0 cam turbo, Magnus(Verona) 2.2 cam turbo.

Yes you must, I demand it! haha jokes ........ we do want to see more pics and videos to hear how it sounds. Also make sure to take lots of pics of the F28 install because I want to do it too

[Efratech]

is that at the wheels?????

[kinkyllama]

Lots of hp, KW's, front big brake kit, and perfect size wheels. Very good setup!!

Any plans to run an LSD? That'd make a World of difference, esp as well as the rest of the cars built

Think he's been trying to buy an f28 with an lsd from europe kinky

He tried to buy 2 of them, one from ebay.co.uk. The one fom ebay got relisted due to the seller not wanted to sell outside of UK. I still wanted to know myself what happened with the other one.
