Just have to post this BS - 400HP N/A

What is it with people these days?

"...engine has j bridge porting, exhaust porting.......engine registered 400 hp on dyno without NOS....."

must be the 437 stickers that give it that much power.
what a load of bull................

Nice ARP (rod bolts!) sticker, Eibach sticker when it sits at the stock ride height, Borla sticker when it has RB exhaust....

Maybe 400 at the flywheel with the NOS. I wonder if this guy knows Matt1979

I don't see how all those stickers could leave that car street legal?! The driver wouldn't be able to see anything out the side windows, and the hatch is covered too!! Hmm... 400RWHP w/out NOS from a n/a engine?? I gotta ask him what his trick is!!

400 hp on the bottle sounds about right for the mods.

Don't you know? All that extra power comes from the stickers! How could you not know that

Is it just me, or does that thing look like it's about 2 feet too short?

It looks all wierd. Like the front end is all smaller than normal or something. I dunno.

maybe it's the stickers...

I e-mailed the guy a link to this thread. Hopefully he will respond. You never know, maybe he forgot to mention the third rotor in the engine bay.
