I watched the video. Notice no time from the 1/4 mile run. Either Jeremy was scared to death or that's 1000 miniature hp & a number of them were killed by pit bulls. I doesn't look like 1000hp or sound anything like 1000hp. Jeremy pegged the needle on the BS detector. Want to see what 1000 real hp looks like, click here. See if you think this car is more powerful! http://videos.streetfire.net/video/9e21b566-0976-4929-a884-98af011c130d.htm

Matt, you have without a doubt one of the finest sports cars available. My point is not that this is faster or that is faster. My point is that in order to make big powere with a 4cyl, they have to be heavily stressed. Heavily stressed pieces break. Nothing more, nothing less. 700hp in any fwd 4cyl anything is undrivable and about to blow up. 700hp in a rwd V8 car can be streetable & reliable. Taht's it.
