The pushrod 60 degree V6s, 2.8 3.1 3.4, are cake compared to that fucker. The X codes do have a lot of potential though. I think that it was rumored that the original iteration, before production, was putting out somewhere in the neighborhood of 375 hp at the flywheel. Its just what I have heard though as I haven't actually seen or read of any prof of this.

Buk if you get that thing boost it if you can find room to stuff everything. :6
