Just found this on the net,now how reliable would this be?


Basicly its 2 Hayabusa engines turned into a twin turbo v8 from a company called holeshot racing twin gt35 turbo 1000bhp 500ftLbs torque

Thats got to be mental? But how reliable?

Lottery win would see that in the hot ariel atom that they did. Same ish engine minus the turbines (I know there is more to it than that!).

1000bhp in a 525kg has got to be a bit of a giggle, right?
