    Default Ford cortina with a Koenigsegg CCX engine

    Corsa Sport - for Vauxhall, Opel and Holden Corsa and Barina

    Found the link to this in another forum, thought i'd share it. Absolutely insane build, and very well done aswell.
    1700 BHP......
    beware there is alot of photos 56k death.

    Mhmmm, I really don't want to neither think or talk about the cost of this... examples are just the clutch for instance, wich was £3000(sponsored price) you know, and buildig the exhaust manifolds was about £2400 just in materials... :S

    No, not 2k hp.
    The engine can produce well over 2000hp,(it wll give about 2300hp at 2.4bar boost) but turbos is its only limitation , they can produce 1750hp at the maximum in teory , so we'll se how well they hang in there.

    It even passes 1000hp before 1 bar(14.7psi) of boost.

    If we get 1500,1700 or 2000hp really doesent matter, it is only in it's drag-spec configuration it will be ble to put down these hp numbers.

    As it is now it produces 170hp at idle, 290hp at 2000rpm... and after that the turbos really kick in... so there is always enough power...!

    Totally off bost, it produces somwhere between 550-600hp if everything continues as planned...

    Looks damn sweet, but personally I'd rather just buy a whole Koenigsegg

    I read the whole thing, probably the coolest project car I have ever seen, and 170hp just at idle? It's going to be an absolute weapon!!!!

    thats an insane project, that would rip up anything haha

    i guess what should be told to anyone challenging him at the lights is...

    expect the unexpected


    how the hell would he get his mitts on that engine!!!!! he struck gold i say

    if i was him, i would at least put the engine in a more worthy car, but ay it is unique, im gonna be watching this build
