Still up for grabs, seems to be too powerful for interested buyers, who wants to tame this beast?

Did buyers actually tell you that?

What does "capable of 700hp" mean, exactly? I understand it doesn't even put out 400hp now. What needs to happen to get 700hp?

a stronger clutch and gearbox upgrades are needed to support the full HP capability of the current engine setup (Fueling, ignition, induction will all support 700hp)

The current dyno and setup is the most we could keep on the street and current tire width/compound, this is around 475hp at the crank, 395hp at the wheels

Mine on mid-boost makes 435 at the tires. And that is non-twin-charged. No issues with parts breaking on mine. 31k on that motor so far. And that’s a lot of smiles!

I assume it's an Ecotec? How are you getting that kind of power?

I guess either it didn't take him long to get his kicks, or it scared the beejeezus out of him. (He wouldn't be the first!).
