What about 1.6L's putting out 650hp? Hard to swallow? Well, better start
gulping because they are running 10's in Hondas. :)

There used to be a time when 400hp out of a 4 cyl motor was considered
pushed to the limits. Not anymore. Pick up a copy of turbo Mag. Yah its
all Asian Import oriented but its a worthy read. (occasional VW shows up
from time to time.)

If you want the crack pipe, you gotta ask Honnold's wife. :)
