If you can get traction to the ground they are quick as hell! The only problem I can see is that they are very light. I dont know from personal experiance through.

I think they are putting the turbo on a 1.8 N/A *I THINK* and the turbo rabbits that I have seen are insane! Like I said though I dont know what they do for traction I would think that car is VERY light and hard to get traction unless you have some slicks. IMO

You can put various engines in there such as the 8v 16v vr6 and the Audi 5v turbo (same as the vw 1.8t except its smaller). After you get that all worked out its just a matter of finding someone who makes a turbo kit for the engine you chose or doing a custom job piece by piece.

Btw I have an issue of maxpower/eurotuner somewhere around here and they feature an mk1 rabbit with a supercharger instead of a turbo and it runs 11.8s. Ill see if I can maybe scan the article sometime for you.

though for me, you'd have to change it to 10 inches, and you'd have to change inches to millimeters, and you'd have to change 10 to 5 and you'd have to change dick to poor excuse for one.

yeah i have a friend that has raced that thing a few times... he says that the guy races superbikes for fun... from what ive heard the easiest thing to do is get a blower from a g60 corrado on an 8v and get a smaller pulley to get higher boost.

How much of a pounding can those 8v motors take?
