The 3.6 Litre Tuscan has 350BHP, so look up the T350 stats and they should be the same

I believe for the 4.0L standard Tuscan, 360bhp is stated.

The leaflet I picked up at the motorshow quotes the 3.6 litre as 350bhp.

From memory, a standard 4 litre Tuscan kicks out 360bhp and 310ftlb of torque @ 7000 rpm. 0-60 time is 4.2 secs. 0-100 is 9.8-ish I think - certainly in the sub-10s bracket.

These are all official TVR figures btw, so some salt may be required

the performance times never changed i dont think(allways quoted as 0-60=4.2,0-100=9.6,vmax+180mph).however,the power figures are different-4.0l=360bhp/310ftlb and 3.6l=350bhp/290ftlb.so draw your own conclusions.the same thing happened when the 's' power figures went from 390bhp/310ftlb to 400bhp/315ftlb,ie no change in times were released(0-60=3.8,0-100=8.1,vmax=+195mph)hope this helps-mike v.

I've also seen an S with 405bhp, not sure what was going on there.

No I'm fairly sure it was 405bhp - dyno sheets don't often lie

but they do and often. I've had readings plus and minus 30hp. There are many variables. All dyno sheets should be no more trusted than being 'justabouts'.
