1000bhp Impreza
Apparently
Our old car seems to be getting looked after just fine in its new home in Poland. A £22,000 gearbox was its last treat !!!
http://eng.kaps-transmissions.com/ne...baru-1145.html
Not sure what its reving to in the video but the gear ratios allow the following mph @ 7500rpm, max safe rpm 9500
1st 50.6
2nd 70.7
3rd 97.4
4th 126.4
5th 162.0
6th 200.1

It was running approx 850bhp on the high boost Methanol map (before Nos) so 1000bhp is on the cards with the Nitrous on. I only ever ran a 70bhp shot of Nos to sharpen the spool up...... it was fast enough for an old bloke
The testing shown in the video was on V-power so either 650 or 700bhp on those runs, depending which map they were running.

Must be speeded up footage. It can't be that fast with that weedy UK Turbo-style spoiler fitted.
