    So if you put the 1UZ-FE in it would it be lighter? :eh:

    I know these engines can reach 900-1000BHP because people use them in drag cars pushing close to 2000bhp down here IIRC

    With that you would have a car that would be 1BHP per kilo?

    I wonder how many extra pairs of undies i would need to drive that?:hmm:

    BHP per kilo is directly proportionate to POU(Pairs Of Undies) per second under acceleration.

    need to change em quicker than this to keep up

    I hope they got mixed up between mph and kmph at the end of that video. It says the thing got up to 196kmph in 1000m. Last time I had my SW11 at the strip it trapped 189kmph which is at the end of 400m.

    the video says it got an average of 196km/h over 1000m, top speed was 336km/h.
    don't you understand swedish hehe
