The badge reads..... TTR...... and it is a Twin Turbo RENAULT. 
Not, GTS or GTR..... Thats Skyline.
The front end is a one off , and thats still the Renault 21 nosecone. Just a bit of rework  .
Twin Turbo's need a lot of cool air.
As for the Renault badge matter. On both sides it says.
Renault Motorsport / 21Turbo owners club.
They hav'nt got a "clue", as it rolls up behind. But as it goes past, "they won't forget it".

Why two turbo's  .
No lag. 
No traction loss.
High and low boost.
Plenty of pull through all the gears.
And boy does the engine look sweet
As Johnboy said. WHY NOT . Sequential turbo's is not something new, it just has'nt been done to a 21 before.
Someone had to try it, just about everything else has been done to these cars.
And I wanted something different. After all it is a "Retro Renault", is'nt it .
Hopefully sometime I can show it to you guys.
Andie. |
