Big props to Exelixis Motorsports for hitting 900hp. And out of Romania none the less! I do agree with Evokid03 in the fact that their turbo setup looks "rushed" in it's production. I'm sure you guys can out do there numbers with a far cleaner setup.

All of our updates are simply on an engineering level so there really isn't any pictures I can take at the moment that you have not already seen. I will keep everyone posted though as they happen.

Awsome build, that's for sure.
I am Japanese and I would think this kind of build would be considered "extreme" and will be less-valued IN Japan.(It will have positive review for sure but people would be more confused on why go such extreme to tear apart a fine balanced car...that's all)
But for this level of engineering and work this would be very exciting and ground breaking...that's what this is all about!

Good luck, subscribed!

That Romanian built car is NOT making 900whp. If they could barely fend of a c6z06... they're probably making closer to 600whp.

I thought the Romanian one was also using a huge shot of nitrous.

solidworks, FARO arms, fabrication....I'm at home. Missing fun projects at work and having flashbacks to Formula SAE days.

I think the 1000whp goal is a low goal...however the pricetag won't be
