  • Saturn is not a name you hear much in the automotive world since they shut down years back, but even more rare is hearing about a street legal 500hp Saturn powered GoKart! Fortunately for us, we were able to have one of our first encounters with a DF Goblin kit car in person at Street Car Takeover in Atlanta, Georgia. Even more fortunately for us, we knew the owner as we’ve previously featured him on the channel before with his Saturn Ion Redline (and now you know why we bring up Saturn instead of the typical Cobalt platform for the DF Goblin application). That should also help identify why it’s no surprise to see this tiny 4 cylinder cranking out a familiar 500hp, however the catch here is that this kit car weighs just 1600lbs (that’s WITH the driver)! In addition to catching this zippy GoKart on it’s maiden voyage to the drag strip, we were able to sneak a ride in out on the highway (a very very very very windy ride). Check it out and let us know what you think, and maybe we’ll see some more of these kit cars out next year!

      @@brutallyhonestmf5578 pretty sure the guys from Brazil this weekend at WCF re set the 4cyl record with a chevy 4 cylinder. Dont know for sure what the platform was I know the car was a pro mod cobalt or cruze, but that car went 6.1 @ 230ish I think (unsure on the mph). Almost fast enough to race the 3-4000hp v8 and inline 6 outlaw cars that where in the 5.6-6.0 range doing 220-250mph. Insane.

      there are a couple shops selling kits (or they will build it for you for way more) to swap these ecotecs into an open wheel chassis just like this for less than $30k, and like iirc a lil less than $20k for the base model NA car that borrows hella from the donor car including suspension.
      If getting into this I would just go base model and build it up suspension/drivetrain wise as I added power mods to keep it a balanced track machine, first and foremost.

Next will be solid charge pipes to help the little K04 turbo keep boost past 5,500 rpm and a Meth kit then a tune with HP tuners. should be able to get it to at least 350-400 WHP on stock internals.

    The required power to overcome air resistance rises very quickly after around 160mph. As an example, A BMW 8 series requires 152hp at the wheels to overcome air resistance @140mph. At 160mph it requires 220hp, @200mph it needs 409hp and for 220mph it needs 537hp just to overcome the air resistance and that is for a reasonably aerodynamic car. Things look much worse when you are pushing an open cage. For any drag car pushing speeds over 160mph, aerodynamics needs to be a strong consideration to be competitive.
