    One of the most impressive builds I've seen period, and best lotus build I've seen for sure! I thought the k-swap was what I was going to do my but mind has been changed!! Time to save a little longer!

    I love this car but I can’t help thinking it might’ve been cheaper to just buy the parts that are still there from the original car?

    @krishorst4734 3 роки тому

    Damn! Well we all know what they say about dynamite! If they do put in a supercharger I won't be surprised if this thing is then pushing close to 800hp and 1000NM. That will just be insane! Then its power to weight ratio will be better than a Veyron!
