Over 700hp from a 1.8t is just total madness

They can be bored and stroked out to 2.2 and make well over 800bhp without NOS, I think Andy uses 100bhp shot of NOS? I maybe wrong

Awesome car

That looks wicked and shit the bed it's quick.

But

that's 4wd on slicks,
considering the civic I posted is fwd run a 9.9
the r5 I said about last week is 550bhp fwd ran a 10.3 with issues
and specys tigra is 550ish runnin what 10.1? Fwd.

Still hugely impressive tho and I guess more to come.
