Actually, if I remember from the Ot I copied it from, the car is only hitting 150-160 bhp. But that is all NA with ITB's....So its proabaly not insanely fast, but I'm sure its no slouch...with decent torque.

Besides it's got a track twice as wide as a regular Focus with four times the contact patch.
It may not be a rocket in a straight line but that thing would be an insane auto-x car or backroad burner.

Not to mention that car is also probably sub 2,000 pounds with a driver.
That thing is sick.
