Ok everyone choke on this for awhile!!
I talked to a guy here in Vancouver(Washington) that owns his own import shop, he just recieved a SPOON engine for his civic. The shop had to put in $50,000 into Spoon to get this engine and two others-plus some other goodys. But the moral of the story is that the engine puts out 518hp at the fly wheel, and about 480hp at the wheels. Now according to my calculations that equals one faaaaaaaaaaast car!!
Just thought that I would share this with you
P.S. I know that I put this in Hybrid forum too, but I thought it was needed in both
