So I was just in the airport and saw a import tuner and started skimming it b4 my flight, there was a really nice yellow s2000 making 850 hp and i think 630 torque, i was like wow thats a really nice build, completely shaved bay and really clean, then i looked at the specs and started scratching my head, the car was running id 1000s, a gt3076r and a single 255 walbro, thats simply impossible. Are these numbers just a lie? No way in hell is that car making those numbers on that set up. Someone help me understand this.

Probably a misprint on the turbo. Those numbers aren't even possible on a GT35.

 

No possible at all id 1000 and a single wallbro...not believeable

 

Most car magazines just take the owners word for it, this isn't the first time this has happened. I know a while back when "super street" had a car that was questionable, a viewer wrote them calling BS then the magazine came up with the excuse that they didn't have the time to verify the car so they just took the owners word for it.

 

hahaha i seen the same one in the store the other day, i was like wtf?

 

Maybe the owner of that S would like to come on here and explain himself.

 

Can someone please just post a picture of this engine bay, I have heard far too much about it to not have seen it, and im not buying an import tuner lol

 

2 years ago I was a local shop's photo shoot with my car, a supra & a 240sx turbo.. The photographer was telling me a lot of cars you see in these magazines don't even start lol

 

450 and 330 would make more sense. It was probably a typo

 

It wasnt a typo, from everything I have seen the owner misrepresented the car
