    I thought skyline was 2.6 straight 6 24 v twin turbo, most powerful one I've seen was a Blitz sponsered drag car, still perfectly road legal running 1200bhp, with one huge turbo, taken out to 2.7 fitted with blitz's power cam conversion which in effect gives it a VTEC system. this thing had to use a paracute on the 1/4 mile to help slow it down even though it had Huge uprated brakes :lol:

    Have you read the spec of the HPA's R32? Click Here

    For the 550 @ the fly spec the only thing they're done to lower the compression, from what I can see is a "compression reduce head plate 8:0:1" and the only bottom end strengthening they've done are Race Grade COnnecting rod Bearings.

    From what I have read on Vortex about it they're developing a stage 3 kit for even more power. Christ knows what power they're gonna get from it if they up rate all the internals and stick a couple of bigger turbos on!!

    You see thats from the oage I was trying to find, can't seem to get to it! Theres a TT VR6 24V pictured in there.

    From all reports they are gonna get insane numbers from the Stage 3...640BHP (?) was being thrown around on the Vortex, and if they get that then Im sure 1000BHP in a 3.2 VR would be achievable in a Golf platform. As the 550BHP model does 0-60 in 3.2 is it? This will be mental

    They do for those s/c kits, but the HPA twin turbo set up doesn't.
