This has been around for quite sometime. There is a video that goes with these photos.

If I remember right, 1022hp and 1400NM of torque.

I have stood about 4 feet away from that engine at full noise (not in line with the cylinders...not that that would have saved me....) and I must say that's one hell of an engine. You should hear the turbo. Makes dogs bark 300km away its so loud and high pitched.

A video of that engine can be found here:

If I remember right (and I probably dont....) aside from springs, the engine was standard internally - never opened. It was their test bed for checking out what the limits of the engine were. Cant remember if I am 100% right on that - if you need to check post a message on the Nizpro forum and Simon will answer with fact.....a better source than my memory after 2 vodkas.

I think they ran that same motor to around 1300hp..

They sell them for 38 grand.... Might have a bit more done than just valve springs.... Check nizpro site for all the info.......
