On paper...... or from the horses mouth :?: no serious racing team reveals true horsepower........ or your competitors will beat you before you've even arrived at the circuit. :? ...... we'll see when it races :wink:

I was going to say, that being supercharged there is going to be a limit though, but now I think about it, when some specs mentioned 'supercharged' they can also mean turbo'd..

The spec is the same as the straight 4.2 V8 Twin turbo that you find in the Audi RS6...it may be an off the shelf engine just for longevity, as the PRVs went to 650bhp, but not many actually finished the races.. :lol:

I would imagine the 450bhp spec will be for the road car. The race car is bound to be putting out more than that......even the GT2 cars are doing 500bhp minimum.
