Lol, thats what I was thinking, everyone always says they are slow for some reason? Or is it just the lower end one thats sluggish?

I dont know much about em meself, but ive noticed the term FTSlow on quite a few occasions.

The GT-Slow is a 3.0 twin turbo, 300bhp, but they weigh close to 2 tonnes omg - their power to weight is never very impressive.

The FT-Slows boast decent bhp figures, but they never seem to put any of the performance on the road - they are also very very hard to tune for more power...

I wont even go in to how hard both are to work on...
