478 WHP
Here is the latest and greatest from fireballed and Mynes Performance.
Here is a short video of the last run, quality isn't the greatest but we were running the skeleton crew on the dyno

What's up with the dyno customer being a brainy white widow?

Perhaps a little bit of a silly comparison...but...
Bugatti Veyron HP per liter = 125.125
The Widow HP per liter = 298.75
Congrats yous guys. Keep up the good work

Yep and yep! I drive it to work just about every day. I don't have to drive it every day but I do most of the time because its sooooooooooooo much fun to drive. It just takes a different driving style than a supercharged or n/a car...needless to say a little more finesse is involved. On a daily basis its running 91 oct PUMP gas and making 17-20 psi of boost and around 320-350whp which is enough to have more fun than can be imagined!

nothing popped off? that was just air coming out of the air cleaner. There is alot of air involved when you make 478whp...LOL

it looks plain as day there is something black that pops off when the throttle is lifted. like an air cleaner.which would be for the inlet side of the turbo just suction there.so that shouldn't really happen maybe it wasn't on tight or something. 478whp is awesome for a mini!
