The one in the video is not the new car.. It's the AMS company car which got around 800HP or something.. The Black Evo a customer Evo which got a 2.4l Stroker kit from AMS and a Gigantic turbo GT42R.. that's the one which got 826HP at 42PSI and as I read their is more room for improvement maybe 850HP..
Some pix of the turbo comparison..
The One on the right is the stock Evo turbo.. the one in the middle is GT3076 and that big thing on the left is the GT42R..Below is a picture of the production kit from AMS..

around 4700 does the turbo really spools up.......not bad considering the size of the turbo. The tranny must be desperately screaming for help

That is quite impressive HP. I always thought Norris had higher HP ones, but I guess not?
The street vid was okay, but ruined by the camera-man, who didn't realize that wind overpowers a microphone The car sounded pretty decent once the camera was stationary, though.

I'm really curious how the clutch feels on this thing, and i assume this is hp at the crank, so how bad is the loss of power through the awd trans?

I'm assuming its actually power at the wheels, since they're using a 4WD Dynojet. I think they even mention it in the dyno video..

Like most Evo's (including my 6.5), they don't like to be babied around - just get your foot down and boost as much as you can
