Spaz Posted May 28, 2009 Posted May 28, 2009 (edited) WOW! I want this motor to put into a 7. http://img.worldcarfans.com/2009/5/medium/8533608.jpg http://www.worldcarfans.com/9090528.007/ford-fiesta-powered-by-800-hp-engine-to-run-pikes-peak They want to run the hill in less than 10 minutes, I bet after 15 minutes the motor goes ~boom~. A stock 2.0-liter Duratec is what 140 hp? how can you get over 800hp out of this motor? Edited May 28, 2009 by Spaz
scannon Posted May 28, 2009 Posted May 28, 2009 A stock 2.0-liter Duratec is what 140 hp? how can you get over 800hp out of this motor? Build the engine to take boost and turn it up to whatever it takes. F1 was getting much more than that back in the 1.5 liter turbo days. As much as 1,500 hp for qualifying and 1,000 for the race engine. Skip

WestTexasS2K Posted May 29, 2009 Posted May 29, 2009 Mondo that has already been done. DAX Rush made an all wheel drive Sierra Cosworth powered seven. They have a video on their website. It was doing a street style autocross it looked like it was a hand full.
Mondo Posted May 29, 2009 Posted May 29, 2009 saw that... looks like it's a "point and pull the trigger type car". Thought it would be better in the corners... maybe just the driver.
