So how does a 3000hp 4 cyl 968 Engine sound?

Full Billet block and crank!

It's a crazy build but last I heard the target was more around 1500hp.
3000 would probably be unusable for that car's race class.

Yes, as explained in the video, 1500hp target for circuit racing, 3000hp estimated target for drag racing applications. I'm guessing the drag block would have some key changes to take more boost, and might not even run any cooling (solid block).

Also, I think Rods team were aiming for a little less than 1500hp for the RP968 as the turbos it's running are not rated that high, and they aren't revving it out to 10500rpm.

I really hope they get some decent testing in before the event this year, so we can finally see what this beast is really capable of!

Here is a video of the car..

That's funny car horsepower there almost. Just not using the same fuel.

No where near funny car power. This is awesome though.

Have you seen the build thread for the RP968?
