    Because 500hp out of that motor is really pushing the limits of believability.

    Those blowers produce tiny amounts of boost, and are really just a cheap entry level blower - to get 500hp (372kW in real numbers) you'd need a very serious blower.

    Even Raptors biggest and intercooled rig on a 3800 only pulls 250-275kW at the engine, and thats at 11psi - not 3.

    That's why people are calling BS.

    How many production cars have 1000hp? I can think of 1, the Veyron.

    To put it into perspective, V8 supercars push ~600hp. The average car on the road will have less than 200hp at the engine.

    You don't have a clue what you're talking about.

    Hahahahahahahaha. This is a joke right????

    There's no way you'd get that sort of power from that engine.

    can i ask why posts are getting deleted? its the only way the point is going to get through to this kid. if hes going to post up absolute crap information, and cant deal with the responses, why defend him? noone is ever going to take this thread seriously.. what he is suggesting he has is 99% impossible. are we creating a forum designed for teenagers now?

    how do you find it is to drive with 500hp? how much more do you expect if you were to chuck a 'cooler on it?
