The difference between the Thurlby T9 and the Astra Thurlby 888

1. A higher performance front brake package, which consists of a 343 mil – two part fully floating disc and bell. Advantages of this are improved brake pedal feel and less sensitivity to brake pad knock off. Advantages of the larger disc are improved heat transfer and greater rotational grip.

2. The car is fitted with a free flow exhaust system, which is aimed at improving throttle response and creating a unique diesel performance sound.

3. Engine mapping has been refined to increase throttle response and make best use of the increased flow from the exhaust system.

4. Suspension characteristics have been slightly refined to create a more compliant ride whilst still retaining excellent roll control.

5. Wheels and tyres have been optimised to create a small increase in vehicle track, which in turn creates a more stable platform when cornering.

wheels need to be a different colour, it just looks a bit mashed together in that picture and not really much thought gone behind how it looks
