Default 1170bhp Escort Cosworth from Greece...

Yep thats the number until now on the Dynapack before it shows this warning message...



Now they are looking for another Dyno which can hold the Escort's power...

and here to small videos from a tuning session... Max boost here was 2.4bar and they saw 930s...

http://www.greekdragster.com/videos/...rth/dyno-1.wmv
http://www.greekdragster.com/videos/...rth/dyno-2.wmv

And before you start...ohhh short powerband etc etc...remember the car is strictly for street racing and dragster and it has a sequential gearbox etc etc...

Enjoy...

More info, photos, videos soon...

Whatever, Dynapack chassis dyno's overread big time, it's probably only making 780bhp at the flywheel




Yeah right, BEAST!

Well the power is at the hubs... cannot tell wheel power...i guess close...

Specs we don't know exactly as the owner/tuner do not tell much... They that the turbo is a 118lbs hybrid turbonetics unit, haltech stand alone engine management, sequential gearbox, and the block can handle up to 3.5bar boost...

Simply the owner is AN INSANE Ford junky and he always had fast cossies for cars... and usually when he builds cars he gives a blank checkbook to the tuners....

Hope to have more info, pictures and video soon...

Yep, thats the most powerful YB out there

Followed by the Norwegion Escort ( Not the Blue WRC escort ) in at 2nd most powerful.

Does anyone know whats the third most powerful?

I doubt that the Norwegian Escos is the second most powerful... Don't forget the Monster from Cyprus, plus there is ANOTHER electric blue Escort Cosworth from Greece with a fully built engine and a HKS T51R SPL turbo, sequential, etc etc...

Plus your MONSTROUS 4wd 2dr shaph faced skyline tranny white Sierra which was managed 780 wheel hp on a Mustang dyno at 2.4bar (people who know can understand what Mustang means number wise...). Now it has a bigger turbo (probably hybrid turbonetics) and they are aiming to up the boost over 3 bar... It is built and tuned by the same guys who tune the 1170bhp Escort......

ohhhh, you don't want me to show you the Greek Jap boys...

Lots of 900++++++ EVOS, a couple over 1000bhp, one MONSTROUS very low 9 sec impreza which kills everything in 4 or 2 wheels even from a standing start etc etc...

smal video of an EVO 8 which does 0-300+ km in 23secs ON THE STREET
