A buddy of mine has been working on a silly HP beetle for about 1 year, it has been running for a few months, but only last week has it been set up right. The car is close on 200K in cost.
Running a Turbo 4AGE Toyota 1600, with .............. 305 kw on the wheels @ 2 Bar boost
I went for a ride in it yesterday, again, I can without a doubt say this is the most wildest rides I've ever been in, the accel. is just scary, It has a launch control to keep things in line, you don't just get pinned into the seat but rather forced in and the wind gets knocked out of you, it's just crazy, I have been in some powerfull motors but this one OH BOY. :zhelp: I dubbed it "the green mamba"
BTW Manny is already looking at upgrading the Turbo he wants 400KW. He's just nuts :D he has also owned a 6 cyl Toyota with 500 kw. Also owns Toyota 4WD Bouble cab with a 6 cylinder Cresida motor pushing 200 KW, def. not for anyone with a week gut. :bn:
