Default Over the top turbo upgrade
Found this on the Rennlist 911 Turbo board. Fellow built a monster engine for his 930 - 800+ hp. The video is a 60-140mph time test. Watch the speedo. www.klsales.com/porsche/video8.mpg

Wow

It's hard to tell but it looks like the car is running at least 2 bar of boost, that's just crazy. I want one!

Holy crap. Insane.

What's with the jerking at the beginning? Looks like he over-revs or something. From the looks of it, that engine ain't long for this world.

I am more impressed with the way that tach needle bounces. It goes up fast but drops fast as well. That is one impressive beast.(if you don't know what I am talking about, try blipping your throttle and see how long it takes to spin down)
