I ran a guy once on freeway, old Fox body and didn't see his plate til after he smoked me. It said 650 TT. From sound of it, Im guess that meant twin turbos. He whooped me so bad it was funny...

I know these new ctsvs can make a crap ton of power easily. I am shooting for that power range in the next couple years.
