Less than 6.5L, they must have tuned the shit out of that V8.

 

[reZolut]

[TonyElTigre]

Holy headers

Shelby Super Cars claims that per Langley wind tunnel calculations the Ultimate Aero should reach speeds from 260 to 273 mph.

Im gonna make a car that goes a million miles per hour with 1000MPG

Probably the firewall...the engine isn't open to the cockpit.

Got boost?

Doesnt say if it's N/A or not, though.

Old school 80's F1 cars were putting down 1000+ from 1.5L 4cyls.... (high octane gas though)

edit:
Compression Ratio 8.975:1
^ this is a pretty good indication theyre force feeding it alot.

Werd... the F1 turbo era was absolutely fucking retarded. Renault had a 1.5L turbo V6 putting down about 1200hp.

Im not impressed by these 1000hp supercars. You can buy a fucking Supra and get over 1000rwhp for well under 50 grand.

You could get most decent sports cars over 1000rwhp for under 50 grand, but you still end up with a fast camaro/supra/whatever. It doesn't look like this and probably isn't as nice (or reliable probably).
