i bet that is rapid, how much bhp and torque are we talking?
on low boost around 220bhp and 200lbs of torque.
Higher boost around 235bhp and 225lbs of torque the dude said.
Will easily do 0-60 in 5.4 seconds. The standard does it in 5.7 
0-60 isnt really important but is to give you an idea
When we test drove it it was running low boost coming in at about 3500rpm to give torque, then the vtec kicked in at about 5.5k, the guy said with it set up you only need to change at about 8000rpm 
how much boost is it running, 0.5 bar? because 15bhp thats not a lot between high and low boost is it.

yeh at the moment is 0.35 bar, and most is like 0.5bar.
he's run it at 1.1 bar before and said it was mental,. but wouldnt feel happy running it like that without measuring all the air/fuelling properly etc etc

in general interest what would you compare this cars performance to. i can happily believe the 5 dead can be done in this from 0-60 but whats it comparable to on the move?

EK9 N1 has a 0-60 of 5.7 seconds. That isn't an EK9 N1, its just a normal EK9.

would annihalate valvers.
my mate who test drove it had a 3 litre supra (non turbo) and he said it pulled smoother/nicer than it, and said it would be a good race.
but i mean 235-250bhp on boost no more than 0.5 in a car probs about 900kg should be fast!
i reckon safely under 15 secs on the 1/4?
edit - the guy who owns sb-performance has an sti scooby, and he was heavy on the loud pedal showing us where to go on the test drive, and we kept up easy,
But i cant tell you as ive never owned a turbo/car of this power etc.

The supra non turbo has a whole 184bhp in something the size of an aircraft carrier so i'm not surprised he thought it pulled better, it wouldn't be a good race either, the supra would be left for dead.
