The touge' here is the willow springs race way which is on a small hillock. He's pretty good with his vehicles I must say.

but if you recall,he had engine problems during the first and the second touge.first a headgasket blew,second time something else happened.
but yes great to hear that an indian is at the forefront of tuning.

How i wish,that tuning would be as easy in india.just ship your ecu or take out 5 hours and drive your car out with 130hp more.damn!!sometimes i wonder why i was born in the wrong continent.india is good for everything except automobiles.when will ever see another turbocharged petrol car(like the rs).

Absolutely, though i took that with a grain of salt, i dont doubt that he could have done the whole thing with nothing more than a bottle of windex.

and the worst was the 7 litre Viper with so much blow by that they had to fashion a ctach tank with a bottle to stop the oil from spilling on the track, as per Shiv the factory sponsered Viper was making 70/90 BHp per litre or something ... pathetic engineering.

Right, and that catchcan looked pretty full too!!

Its strange that they got blow-by on the viper.... however, forget about the power, i guess that what slowed the viper down the most was the inability to keep good traction...

Yup Vishnu is known for his EVO/Subaru and BMW tunes for 335's and M3's. Puts out pretty impressive #"s for what it is. He's only about 20min from me.
