I want some fun in my 155 THP

[Dyu]

So i had my 155 THP for about 3 months now and its done 1550 miles. So far i haven't gone above 3500 rpms so that i can break it in a bit. It's that point in time where i think i want some fun with a smile and grin on my face. So the question is, how many revs do you guys take it to? The thing i don't want to bust or cause the engines problems by ragging it to 6000 revs.

Thrash the arse off it!

Go to the redline! Thats what its there for

[WTF]

Red line it.

To be honest, I think everyone says just drive it and have fun from the start.

[mix]

As with everyone else, to the Red Line!

You've missed out on 3 months of fun.

If it doesn't bounce off the limiter, you're doing it wrong.

[BeefMasta]

As above. Push it to the limit.

Ive driving like an OAP for thd last 3months. Im really tempted to redline it but with all crap problems on the THP, im afraid to. A girl friend is getting a RCZ GT and she is adamant she can whip my ass in it and that my poncey little is no match for it. It's got the 200THP is it right? Is she right?

50 extra horses out of the box. Chances are she'll probably tan you especially if you continue changing half way through the range.

[WTF]

She might if you're stuck on OAP mode.

Honestly, just go and have some fun, maybe not red line it, but after driving it and having fun whilst doing it, you'll figure out how and when to push it. You need the practice before a girl beats you

It'll be close but I doubt she'd thrash you. DS3 is faster to 60. But top end she'd probably pull away.

As far as I'm aware, they're both about the same off the line. The RCZ is slightly heavier so the increased power compensates rather than make it quicker than the DSport THP. The RCZ has a higher top speed though.

There are some talented female drivers out there. I quite like the rear of the RCZ but the front looks aweful. I dont think its a 200thp version becausee shes only paying £15k for a two & half year old car. Anyway i always let a girl beat me juat in just they rear end me . im going to warm the engine up by driving 15nin and rag the crap of it. There's never a chav driving about in High Wycombe

Have fun! Report back!
