I personally will not be surprised to see this car go close to 1000rwhp at sane boost levels....check me on that 
And therein lies the catch. Give away 1.5 inches of ground clearance, and have turbos capable of making 1000 at the tyres for $4995 delivered

Imagine if you had access to some race gas, C16 or similar and could run 18 - 20psi boost. You would really be getting all the goodness from the 560 compressors then!

Im not sure on the other particulars 52172, but Firehawk did let me know the temperature was a staggering 125 degrees F in Kuwait yesterday!
Imagine stuffing 800+ hp of turbocharger in the engine bay on a day like this without proper thermal blankets. Everything plastic in the engine room would be melted like macaroni cheese

How is 98 octane fuel similar to 91/92. Isn't 98 octane supposed to be 98 octane.
I ask that because I see they sell 91 and 95 ocatne gas grades in the gulf gas stations. They must be cheating the people, then.

There are two different ways of rating fuel octane -
RON (Research Octane Number) as used in Australia and by the looks of it the Middle East
(MON (Motor Octane Number) + RON / 2) which is an average figure as used in the US and several other countries
Our Aussie 98 Octane fuel has similar properties to US 92/3 Octane
Its all in the way fuels are rated
