It didn't look that quick in it's new spec either, with Martin all over him like a rash running only 580bhp .

Do u guys doubt it made 920 at dyno or that it was 920 in the vid? Could it be that he didnt run full boost?
Its a bit of a habit here in Norway, not running the max boost u had on the dyno... Same in uk maybe?

I was there, and i agree that it didnt look like over 900, but it had alot more umpf than the other rallyx cars, thats for sure.

the problem is that you can easily run full boost on a dyno but when you strap it in the car SO much changes...

it prob has 900 bhp in-car for a about 2 seconds then it retards cos its 11:1 comp ratio
