BTW this motor is built for nitrous, so we're not taking full advantage of it.
We'll spray it later this year........if we need to.

I cant begin to comprehend the g forces at such hp levels. A 500 hp evo feels pretty fast, more than double that must be retarded.

Lets see some video's we all know you got them.

Considering the fact they do nothing but improve on this car and have come through time and time again, I'd say that statement was totally uncessary.

Its a brand new setup and a whole list of new things to test. Relax, Im sure you'll be satisfied.

You guys are crazy!! Congrats on some amazing numbers

One question though is even with AWD are you guys worried about traction? DO you have anything planned for putting it down? Good luck at the track.

Most the time AMS uses corrected WHP, So if that's the case then they should be making over 1000 WHP uncorrected like most all the other vendors use.

Hmmmm considering it's 494whp per liter through a power robbing AWD system there isn't going to be a ton more left...end of story. If you want to see 1000whp, 12000whp, 1400whp you need more displacement that's all there is to it.
