As promised// photos of tC 16lbs.

I promised someone here to post some photos of a magazine here in Puerto Rico, where they show a stock engine taking 16lbs. of boost and making 387whp and 342lbs. of torque. I don't know if I'm suppose to post them, but here they are. The magazine is in spanish language so, sorry guys.

Those numbers are crazy!

a 2004 tC eh?

i like the header design. I just want to know how long something like that will last....

^if he's running stock tires, it doesn't surprise me that he needs all that power. the trap speed is nice though

It’s not the same Jotech from the states or the same guys who built Kenny’s motor. It's a local custom turbo shop that's also named jotech doesn't have anything related to Kenny or its car. The car was built by jotech and creative two local shops. hereb in PR.

Is that whp? I know you said it was but the article from what I can read just says hp. That along with regular tires and no LSD would explain a run just below 13sec.
