AWD Turbo K20a into a Honda Insight

  • Опубліковано 28 жов 2015
  • The First ever: LHT K-Sight AWD turbo.
    This was based on our LHT K-Sight package. But with higher HP becomes less traction on street tires. AWD is the perfect anwser.
    This was built to be a true street car. AC, PS, ABS, heat good drive- ability.
    The car looks great and is pure joy to drive, Over powered and over kill brakes makes it even better.
    Look for this at SEMA in the HONDATA booth 2015
