LOL Good point! 10 min at idle i bet. 140 is just an unreal number. The new turbocharged dodge dart comes with only 160hp and that's from a 2.0L. In the Spark, we're dealing with only 900cc's! Without complete engine modifications (crank, rods, pistons, custom head-bolts, steel head gasket, blue-printing, dynamic-balancing, etc) there is no way this thing would hold up! I don't think the materials can even handle this kind of thermodynamic load with the current cooling system. I would love to hear from a neutral 3rd party that owns one of these for a year and uses it regularly. I know if I had one of these souped-up monsters, I'd be on it every day!!so what's the expected engine life here? 7? 8? maybe 10..... minutes?
What kills me is there is no video of it in the water!
Hmmmmm IDK, I think it would be fun as hell to try I'd try it! I mean 140? That's only 30hp more than an X4 and the spark is longer AND wider... and the XP could easily use another 20 or so. I think the spark has all the hull one would need at that power spec.I don't see the point at all. Strapping 500HP into a golf cart may make for a good time, but you need the supporting structures to handle that power as well...
i think the 175/140hp turbos is more directed at people racing in australia, the sprak cost from $7000-$10,000 in australia so the cost of the turbo is a huge amount but doesnt cost more than the ski down under
In MD you cant modify the suspension, exhaust, or lights from oem. Tires cant be wider then wheel well.
