285hp, 330 ft-lbs on the conservative Cobb AP 93 oct, map, but i may get a custom tune if i end up getting a larger intercooler. custom tunes have yielded much bigger numbers. seeing how even stage1 is scary fast for a daily driver, i'm gonna have to stop myself at some point....

Here is overhead closed, and side shot with it removed:
Nice Dan. That huge removable sunroof reminds me of the 'open air' feeling I got when I drove my former 300ZX TT (that had t-tops).

I can see it now, 12-15 SVXi, running Juice, Boost, gears, and testosterone, running 12-16 seconds, trannys, gears and pistons flying through the air, rivers of antifreeze, clouds of steam and smoke, women screaming, babies crying,,,,,,

Sounds COOL, I'm in!!!

I'd take my chances in a 300+hp 951 over a SVX on Lime Rock's circuit. The SVX would need around 360hp or so to be near the power/weight and won't have the 951's inheirent track tendancies instilled since birth or it's 50/50 balance.

+1 The SVX is a great car, but it would take alot for one to be set-up to be competitive with a 300+hp 951.

Everytime I think of a 951 turbo on a race track, this pic comes to mind:



So, are you working the wife over? Things looking good for this weekend?
