Default 3000 Horsepower on pump gas

Not sure if this should go here or the lounge but given the build I'd say this works.


3000 on pump 92/93 and 4500 maxing the dyno on C16.

$100k motor easily.

At least now we know theres an actual motor in the Devel Sixteen. Everyone said the power they were claiming was impossible. (Well they claimed 5,000 but 3-4500 is close haha)

WTF would u put it in? A 1950's Cadillac? They say it is for the street lol everyday driving BUT what will it fit in. I think 100k is a little light on a turn key price. It is all billet and made in house.

Sorry, but that's about the ugliest car I have ever seen. And it sounds like a 1988 Olds cutlass. LOL The twin jet engine pods in the back look like *** and I hope that they plan on using more than 3 screws to hold the rear wing side panels to the car at 300+ mph. This just looks like some oil rich Arabian had WAY too much time on his hands and WAY too much money with VERY little style.

And they never showed the engine running on the dyno either. Kinda sucks.

I'm wondering what the large fake looking booster jets are on the back? fuel tanks maybe?

FWIW, They do show the engine on the dyno in the first vid.

Stupid rich assclown Arabs.......they are the most arrogant ******* drivers out here. They will come screaming up on your *** if you are in the inside lane, and if you don't get over to let them by they will literally have to slam the brakes to not hit you. Its like they know you are going to move out of the way. Sometimes you have two Lambos following each other that come right up onto your *** like that. Instead of going around they really think everyone will just get out of their way.......hahahaha....not this guy. Rather, I drop it into #3 at 80mph and don't hit the the brakes and the car slows rapidly to about 50mph........it scares the **** out of them. Couple have lost their rear ends sliding sideways on the brakes....lol

Happens every single day you go driving somewhere. They are jackasses.
here in Dubai.....even worse in Kuwait.

I watch those videos, and all I can think about is how that poor paint on those cars gets sandblasted constantly.

FYI, there is a video on Steve Morris's facebook page of the motor running.... granted, it's on a chasis dyno, so you just see the crank pulley spinning and the turbos spinning.

Lol so true, wont be able to get it down to the pavement at all. Honestly 350mph top speed seems a little outrageous as well. Where in the hell would you even be able to do it? You'd need like a 15 mile straight

Stunning engine, although probably more suited to boat racing than a road car. Although it looks to be using GM exhaust manifold on the engine dyno vid.

Also see here for a more conventional 4000bhp (3000bhp on pump) engine from Steve Morris:
