    0-100km times are pointless exercise for our polos.

    Traction is the main issue here. Probably 80-120km or something like that will be more meaningful...

    Motor magazine (Oct) shows many tuned cars, and although Polo has more power than some cars, still 0-100km is slower... = due to FWD.

    Plautos car will fly if wings are attached.

    damn, where is that thing going to fit in the engine bay!?!

    As always, amazing work and thank you for sharing.

    Please let us know when you go into manufacturing for Polos on commercial scale, I'd love some of the work you've cooked up.

    I can't believe, the engine and the gearbox are holding this much power without giving you too much grief!!
    I work with this stuff... it is homework.

    the gearbox is not a problem... I'm worried with the engine..
