you can get the turbos hot enough so you can actually see the impellers in the turbo spinning!

I will indeed back him up, and with a nice drop to stop the body role, it's unbeatable through the twisties

errrr, have any of you actually been in a vx? 
let alone a modded turbo one 
no offence meant, but if the rex is 'unbeatable' in terms of handling then why arent they the weapon of choice on trackdays?
like the elise and vx?

because people are scared of them, it's the engine.. it puts people off, just wait in years to come people will use more and more of them, re:worx really opened peoples eyes the other weekend at jap day with constant reliable 10second quarters without breaking. it's only not weapon of choice because people think it will blow up after every track day!

Dont forget that engine has no air flowing over it which whilst driving hard would cool the manifold etc to stop it getting quite that hot.
On the RR a turbo running good power will glow white.
Check this one. Twin turbo racing truck
