Hi-Tek 3 Report post Posted March 23, 2009 Jesus, I know Kris through the Ford RS owners club. I certainly have a fair idea how much time and money has been put into this. I hope he gets more than $15,000 for it. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mike.Gayner 0 Report post Posted March 28, 2009 (edited) The guy who said this is 500hp is fkn dreaming to be honest. Unless there's some seriously big mods not listed, there's no way this car is worth anywhere close to 500hp.

Greg111 13 Report post Posted March 29, 2009 Doesn't appeal to me all that much to be quite honest. 500hp out of a four pot engine would be really achieving something, having said that i can't imagine it being reliable (at all). Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

There's a chap in the U.K with the same engine in a Sapphire Cosworth that is making 950HP 500HP is not all that hard with these engines, light mods, no internal engine work will get you just a touch under 400HP And Greg, you'd be surprised there's a tonne of these in the U.K making that power and more....

Mike.Gayner 0 Report post Posted March 29, 2009 Yeah, no I'm afraid not. I'm talking about REAL horsepower, not boy-racer "nah bro it's been on the dyno" horsepower. There's no way you're getting 500hp out of this engine with "light mods", and if you're dumb enough to try without internal work, you deserve a connecting rod in the face when it explodes.

Hi-Tek 3 Report post Posted March 29, 2009 ^ I'm assuming you've owned one of these then?. If not you need to do your homework...... Yes 500HP requires internal work.... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

What is the difference between REAL horsepower and DYNO horsepower pray tell? Ive tried googling and I cannot find the difference Im afraid.. Even Wikipedia has no information regarding real and dyno horsepower differences.. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
