RIPS in NZ would have to be getting close. Quote: RIPS RB30/26 streetable engine Stock RIPS prepped 2wd block, no filler or braces, fully water cooled. Stock RIPS prepped crank RIPS 2wd wet sump, tomei oil pump RIPS RB26 head, brand new with tomei parts RIPS inlet plenim with 90mm TB RIPS custom exhaust manifold GT45 turbo Twin turbosmart 50mm progates 75hp NOS kit 1200whp @ 9000rpm, 2.1 bar on C16, 7.86 @ 177.4mph Best time so far I believe 7.86 @ 177.4mph (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JguTtoKtggY&feature=channel_page) Listen to that 10,000rpm scream (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yb7Y6X1kMkA&feature=channel_page) and this perspective (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ltA1DWrm75c&feature=channel) Fair decent effort on a stock block thats not grout filled etc.

But saying its knocking on the door of 2000hp @ crank is a big call. It's not going to lose 800hp turning the box and diff.

That's just it - they're idiots. I can't make allowances for such people.

Instead of just jumping to conclusions about this fella, which 90% of you have, and quite possibly hit the nail on the head, BUT... 4 bolt mains, cast rb block, add a billet steel girdle type of arrangement that follows the bottom of the block and sump and cradles the block by coming up the sides of the block, machine the sides of the block to accept this new piece of hardware and add a bolt to tie it in from the sides (same as LSx), yes i am well aware RB's use a single piece cap/girdle arrangment but the bottom is still the weakest link. I would not be entertaining the thought of a big stroker as you're going to need in excess of 9500rpm to achieve this sort of power. Yes 666hp per litre is more than achievable, back in the 80's BMW had a 1.5L turbo engine making 1200hp. Yes i agree this man is talking ****, but discounting the idea is not to be done by those who do not engineer hp themselves.
