The mechanic isn't a spaniard, he's a dirty brit who works in Flanshaw.

Ironic thing is it would leave most of the mlr Evo's for dead whilst it works!! I love how they were all joking about how soon the engine will blow then they are all praising the Mitsubishi blocks when the car's Turbo's and clutches are going caput.

I just hope these are a bluff to mask the real build. But I very much doubt it...

OMG how funny was that thread

How do they possibly expect that "thing" to generate 900whp and do 10,000rpm

surely no one can be that stupid

it was never posted if this was a customers car or the (and I use the term very loosly) tuning company's demo car

haha briliant thread. It reminds me of the Copex Turbo on the MX6 website and the guy who poured a load of sand into his Audi's throttle body :-D

Leave most of the MLR Evo's for dead? I hope that's a windup.

Notice the huge truck turbo with undersize turbine for compressor and no water cooling, we have very similar on our 7.5L truck engines at work!

Rear prop not spotted clearly, don't get many on FWD cars!
