If that makes sense, whats the answer? 
BTW, I have to say the GT2 is the most brutal accelerating car I have ever been in - just phenominal. :shock: |
....first, i´m more than glad that u were able to experience one of the top products PAG ever released, the GT2 is indeed a masterpiece and not only well-known for its brutal acceleration, now that u know just imagine such a machine on a decent race track 
....automotive heaven 
to quickly answer your question, the GT2´s two K24 turbos are working parallel but are that good trimmed that there´s hardly any brutal turbo kick and absolutely NO lag, so i can only agree here the GT2s overall engine performance is definitely among the best of all turbocharged engines available... |
Thanks alot for the answer.....
Although we did get the GT2 up to an indicated 330kmh (I know its official top speed is only ~319kmh) on public roads it would also have been nice to experience how it handled on a track instead of a straight line all day.
