Wondering what info is around on the Koro 4.9L GT-3. Sounds like it would be a VERY interesting car.

 

We are the worldwide distributor of that kit It is very interesting, I believe it dynoed 560PS!! Keep in mind this is NA, no turbo or s/c!!! If anyone would like more info give Bryan (my manager) a call at 954-977-7130 as I don't know the specifics...

My buddy is also a distributor of Koro in the USA and a good friend of mine is the programmer for Koro

 

Haven't you guys ever heard of search engines.....

Took 1 second to find in Google

www.koro.de

Would have been a tough one to guess- ha ha

Their engines are at:

Is that one of them fancy "soft wear" jobbers you use on them talking picture screens with the naked ladies on em?

 

Thanks for your missive on the use of search engines...I was looking for actual knowledge, not a promotional piece.

 

wow, over a liter jump in displacement. Does anybody (evan???) have borexstroke figures?

 

If you look at their website it contains both the engine bore/stroke figures and also .pdf files of the INDEPENDENT magazine articles that have reviewed it.

Unsurprisingly these are mainly German since Koro have virtually no real presence outside Germany.

Koro is a recent startup to which I would not give any credit for this car. They did not build that engine, they commissioned it, and it is another company in Germany who builds Cup cars for racing who has done it for them. The ECU programmer at Koro is Joerg Kroese, an ex Gemballa, who is a good old mechanic but not as good programmer, his cars have a very peaky power curve and run quite lean judging from the temps they reach. Neil I don't know if he is the person you are referring to but I would think that PSI Motorsport who I know very well in Europe, and the staff as well , can do much better work. I am surprised that FVD is a distributor of that kit, as my understanding is that it was a one off, but makes sense since most of the tuner houses (FVD, Cargraphic, etc..) get many of their products from the same builders. That "Koro" car is the fastest GT3 in Germany right now.

 

Wonder why someone is not building a quality 4.9L Gt-3 if it can be done? Like the factory for example
