My French is rusty, but I don't think that's 400 HP, although I wouldn't be surprised by looking at that engine.

I emailed him and asked if he spoke English at all so I can ask him all about it. laugh

Cheval is horse in french. (ch is short for hp)

and it looks like he has turbo and some sort of n.o.s.

So I'd say 400 hp which is quite deliciously insane.

Eh bien vous êtes tous absolument corrects, félicitations! (brain switches back to english...) huuh, you're all right.

400hp, turbo, water and alcohol injection. No mention of N2O though, I have a feeling that "nozzle" near the throttle body is a blow-off valve.

The french guy...

Something i find interesting about European car that have been fixed up and US cars that have been fixed up is that in Europe they seem to lean toward smaller wheels whereas over here they want the absolute biggest wheels that will fit.... IMO bigger looks better..... but i guess i am a British California :rolleyes:

No, in Europe, it seems the goal is to fit the smallest tire on the largest rim (width wise).

I've seen pics of a 215 series tire on a 9" rim. Yowza.

Also, half the time the wheels stick out farther than the fenderwells, kinda like a low rider with 10" spacers. smile
