WOW! That is tiny!

I would imagine it has to be about 35 psi of boost and some 116 octane to make that power... What will it make on pumpgas? Did they say?

I was thinking the same thing.


I didn't see any pump gas numbers.

I'm right there with you. These guys amaze me. They have went every direction in the industry. From Street Machines to Street Rods, Bonneville Cars to Drag Cars. They even had a Toyota Camry at SEMA that was (as much as I hate to say it..was cool). Now they are going for the Riddler in February. Everything they do - from design to execution - they nail it flawlessly. Not to mention probably some of the coolest group of guys I have had the pleasure talking with a few times.

No, it is pretty common today with turbo motors. I am mostly amazed to see such a tiny motor in such a big car. I wonder how the boost lag is on that thing!! What does boost come on at? What is redline?

They were spinning it past 9K. I have seen a few 2JZ's with turbos this large and they don't make 20 psi until 6K+ rpm.

I don't think this will ever be run on pump gas.
