Fitted stroker and other mods.Fired her up .Got a hard on listening to her.
The motor has achived 570hp..425kw power and 510lb/ft..680nm of torque. Have run her in ,done 4,000 miles.
Took her up to 140mph (thats 230 kph for those born post metric) It takes no effort, and gets to 140 mph in no time......(of course that was done on a closed race track...cough)
Its just phenomenal to drive ,you can realy feel the scheer torque and horse power,you certainly know there is over 500 hp there,the noise that comes out is just bent.Sounds like thunder.
Just giving the throttle a small nudge can smoke the tyres with ease..... a real hoons delight........Not that I would do such a thing.
The brakes and chassis are not up to power output so will never push it to its limit.
