That engine must be pure titanium, must be a fun drive! I'd like to know more about how they acheived that, and if they meant to do it reliably.

well this achievement won't be too difficult in the comming months as the new K23 is released to the public with Honda saying that 13.5psi is a conservative amount of boost on the engine people will be pulling them out and throwing them into civics in no time and changing around a few things here and there and bam 300hp on stock parts then getting to 500hp at the wheels will only be a good bit of engineering with a larger turbo better intercooler, better flow and more fuel and maybe going into the block.

At what sort of cost? $5000?

I see no dyno sheets saying it reached this magical 500whp.

The GT30R descriptions I can find say it can flow "up to" and "around" 500hp. I imagine that's at the crank.

SoI guess if the turbo is belching out low to mid 400hp and he sprays some sweet naaawz then maybe he's hitting 500whp. Even if he did hit the 500whp mark then I'm sure that was a one time deal on a dyno. No way he's running close to that on the street.


I am highly skeptical.

[exhausted mules]

who cares. it looks like it drives like shit.


the torque curve on that thing must be as peaky as mount everest.
