Top End Slow

Postby Aztran » Tue Mar 14, 2006 3:37 pm

My top end is about 65mph on a good road!

Check my sig for details..........................

Would having the wood burner, logs, thick birch ply panelling, loadsa camping stuff in the back make a big difference to top end speed?

Ive heard that Transits under load are sluggish without a Turbo.

Have you actually ever weighed your tranny as it would be on the road, without unloading anything? You may be suprised...........
