The car was at BHM's Goodwood track day today. It sounded ok but the supercharged +4 of my mate's that we went in was noticeably quicker, and sounded better!! I was very impressed withe the supercharged duratec, it has 275bhp so was nippy, but didn't feel overpowered. Plenty of power right through the rev range.
Those supercharged Duratecs do go well don't they Simon @ SiFab.co.uk Supercharger plus fitting plus new internal parts to cope with above 220bhp power then there's RR set up , no change out of £10 k. I know, I did most of the engineering work for the Mogsport conversions Simon @ SiFab.co.uk

I had 3 other people drive the car today . They had never driven my car and never done a track day . So if you can base it on there driving that is was slower and didn't sound as good .

Now I don't know about anyone else but for the life of me I can't understand which car you are refering to in the first quote. Your car or the supercharged Duratec.

I wonder if either of them runs on Evans waterless coolant...

Another ARP4 and GT4 owner?
Review of my ARP4 to follow, including track day .... nope, due to the rise of the Pound Moggies have gone far too expensive for me so an MX5 has to do the job (and it does)
Steven sold: M3W, Aeromax,V6, 4/4 4seater now: +fourLM62

I've driven a huge number of Morgans over the years with, cvh, zetec, duratec (1.8 & 2.0), v6,v8 rover and BMW, cosworth….
I was wildly impressed with the supercharged 2.0l. It pulled hard from nothing right up to 120mph+ on the track, but was smooth and effortless when we took the scenic route home to Oxfordshire via Midhurst. I know supercharging is not a cheap undertaking, but I'm sure someone switched on (Simon H) could could develop a kit.
p.s. didn't mean to cause offence with my 'crap' comments. Perhaps hit a raw nerve of the owner of a slow, noisy, expensive unsuitable car…..
