I think it's ridiculous. What the hell is the point of all that power? If you want to see big power go look at industrial trucks/tractors, highway trains, jet engines- friggen rocket ships for f*cks sake!

What i like to see is fast lap times, balance, massive traction, an ALL-rounder.

Making massive power in a mass produced engine is great, but it's a waste- WE get it. We've flown to the moon, and sent satellites to Mars. Mankind has made more than 2041kw. Many a time.

Move on.

Its all about the application...sure its not going to be a suitable setup for track...since apparently thats what you like to see...but for other applications like drag it might actually work really well...and its all about showcasing what you can do with a certain engine/setup...so to call it ridiculous is rather narrowminded...

GAS Motorsport got theirs to 1999* horses I believe... Pretty impressive seeing as how we haven't had one single jap engine to over engineer for the last 15 years unlike the yanks :)

*In an engine testing facility, not in the car.

Still, great engine... thanks for trying to start yet another turf war :)

    • Tried to make 1/8npt threads into compressor house of the turbo for my EBC. Threads got fu#ked and ended up with and elongated hole, so I do have good amount and nice threads 90% of the hole but 10% I only had 1-2threads there and rest of it is flush on that side of the hole.. So my idea is to do M12 x 1.25 to AN4 with braided lines instead of 1/8npt to 4mm vacuum silicone hose.  and hopefully get a better thread. M12 is quite big and AN4 is a little bit bigger than 4mm (4.9mm inner diameter braided PTFE hose). but this should work. Thoughts? Otherwise I will weld and adapter onto the turbo.   
    • Looks great, I hope everything is working well after all that time!
    • Finally back on the ground and once around the block for the first time in 2+ years
    • Ok a solution was found. I had left the factory oil temp sensor in and it was hooked up. My car never had the triple gauges.  Apparently when you delete the factory pressure and leave the temp sensor connected it triggers the oil light on the dashboard. Disconnected the temp sender, no more light.  I still haven't gotten around to look at the diagrams to figure out how/why they are tied together.
