I don't know what mods the car had to break the sound barrier, but I'll take 2 please.

It can be done.. Here is me testing the prototype engine:

Here's the pic of me passing Mach 1.5 in my test vehicle... Mach 2.0 is not far off. Once I turn on the Afterburner.

I'll have dyno results soon, so stay tuned. I'll be testing this in my MCS next week. The MINI will require 3 of these engines to achive Mach 2.0. All engine upgrades will be available soon. (Leaf blower starter not included)
