True Turbo Coupes Reply #75 – March 16, 2010, 10:18:16 PM 800 hp? Wow! Buy 4 strong, aftermarket rods and you've got an almost bullet-proof bottom end depending on how much power the crank can hold. I'm liking these motors more and more. Of course, I always want a V8 Bird, but man! I sure would like to have a built, 2.3T Bird too. Quote Selected
True Turbo Coupes Reply #76 – March 17, 2010, 12:34:10 AM Just 800? The Hubers are making more than that. From what I've read about the factory equipment, rod bolts are the weakest link, then the rods. If I manage to break mine (Crower Sportsmans), I'll be calling Carillo (and playing the lottery to pay for it). Quote Selected

True Turbo Coupes Reply #80 – March 17, 2010, 11:58:22 AM Search for Huber's 1000 HP, 2.3 powered, stang on youtube. There is several nice videos of him at the track. It is (from what I have read) a street legal 1000 horse high 8 second car with the full interior still. I love his wheelies! :D Quote Selected
