Wonder how things would go around a track. I'm guessing not too well.

I love how stock it looks on the outside. Not a fan of huge power for the sake of it in general, however. It'd hardly be a driveable engine.

Rolling starts it would be quite nice.

That is some ridiculous boost for a 2 litre engine.

Guessing it is a modified GTX4202R Turbo, running at just off 4 Bar at Dyno.

58psi = 3.998 959 222 4 bar

My point is that a 2 litre engine will struggle to spool such a large turbo.

Notice he doesn't really make power until atleast 5,000rpm. It's probably running some higher duration cams, still needs a lot of revs to build up that boost.

Is that all being done on the 155/75s it seems to be sitting on in the photo? ;)

That right from what I can see from it.. Lots of power on little rubber, better amount then some cars that are RWD with large rubber.
