Yea 800hp is bad ass. I do wonder how fast that motor has to be spinning though. On a 1.8L motor, they probably don't make any power until 4-5k RPM or more. Doesn't make much sense to me to have god awful power but hardly ever use it.

That's what I love about superchargers. Spins at the same speed as the motor. Makes maximum power exactly when the engine would normally, you have full access to it at any time.
