Imagine you think you are the boss in your GT3RS driving round the n’ring and then 2 guys pass you in a 500+ hp clapped out twingo💀. Brilliant driving as always Misha👏
That'd never happen. Lol Too much wheel spin and little traction plus the gearing is too short for such a monster. I'm convinced it could be heavily improved, then it'll gap almost anything. But man, gotta love a +500hp K20 turbo swap shitbox on the most beautiful and dangerous track in the world.
No way. It was pretty slow and you saw it was even passed by a golf. To bring this to a gt3rs, you would need to dramatically improve the chassis and aero but I doubt it's possible in a fwd. Mayne you meant in a straight line. By the time it builds boost you need to shift and it seems you can't use the full potential of the engine. Anyway, the build is awesome
car Fun 110% power 110% Handling 20% Steering 10% I love how Misha smiles all the way throw and the owner feel proud of his car 🫡 Dude took "Sleeper Car" to a whole new level 🤣😎👍🏼 I love when the boys Geek out when they saw what's inside 😂👌🏼👍🏼
Good lord this has got to be the best trolling i've ever seen. Imagine getting passed by this in the ring then you begin questioning yourself if your own car is broken then you notice its misha driving then you question yourself even more hahaha
People are getting used to seeing fast shitboxes, like there are an endless amount of stupid fast Golf's, Polo's, Fiat 500's and what not, but yeah, this one was really cool. I'd love to see it get all the other upgrades done maybe some descrete aero too, just a tiny bit to give ti a little bit of stability. Insane sleepers like this has always been my favorite type of build.
Apart from the dead giveaway that there's NS-2R's for tyres which on a banger like that with no bucket seats means it has a bit of power hiding under the bonnet and they're not there for handling.

My friend owns a G8 Civic Si, with a K24 block and K20 head, turbo, 530+ whp... In 6th gear it reaches 300+ Km/h, just imagine what it does in a Twingo.
Car disintegrates at that speed? Worked on these as a former car mechanic, these twingo’s suuuuck, suspension is terrible front and rear (which works for grandma kind of local rides)
I'm french and my first car was a Twingo. It was stock so I pushed it only to 160km/h 🤣 I thought it was the fastest speed a Twingo could reach because... Too small, no aerodynamics... nothing. Just a box with 4 wheels. I never thought someone would be insane enough to put 500+ hp in it, WITHOUT modifying the structure of the car itself. That's incredible, I love it, but try not to die 🤣 Bravo, ça c'est du sleeper !

How this motor and turbo could ever fit under this hood is beyond my understanding of mechanics. The engine in the (original) Twingo was a shit box originating from the 60s. This is so crazy!

HOLY GUACAMOLY Imagine driving ur 130k BMW or Mercedes on the Nordschleife just to see a Twingo from hell behind u that aggressively flashes its headlights. :D 12:50 that was awesome trolling :D
I drove my moms (obviously stock) twingo at 155 on the autobahn on my way home and was allready scared to death. Cant imagine driving one with this much power at 200km/h down foxhole. Stock 55hp would still move you around quickly enough, but it was allways understeered. But it is one of the most practical cars you can own. With the seats down there is so much storage space.
I did 179 indicated with a 75hp one, a bit sketchy yeah 😂 Fun times, first car i got to drive regularly and trashed it around the alps it was awesome 😊
The scariest part about such cars in my opinion are the seats. My uncle had a Micra 160SR with 110hp. While not much, it was definetely quick around a twisty backroad. Only problem, when you got a little bit too enthusiastic, you started sliding off the seats, which were standart Micra seats.
@@looped7979 did 180 speedo with a 99' clio, never been so scared in my life, 75hp also. took quite a while to get there and when i finally let off, noticed that head gasket was not happy at all
Original twingo weighs 790 kg, 500kg in the front and 290 in the back, my parents had one and the car way already very understeery, it loved to go straight in the middle of a curve, i guess this one is the same. My understanding is that the car was made like this to prevent the very light back try to go in front in the curves. I guess this one is even heavier on the front, hence the feelings you had on the curves.
@@mgcharoudin It probably has no rear anti roll bar (apart from the torsion beam itself), a rear ARB would massively reduce the understeer and probably transform that car.
This dude is a nut job, only a french guy is going to put 500hp in a twingo lol! Misha didn't stop laughing and you have Porches and GTRs struggling to over take.
For those who are curious the K20 engine is a Honda 4 cyl. 16V was used originally in the Civic Type R year 2001-2006. I had one of those when I was 19 and they are magnificent engines. I can only imagine if you put a turbo on there what a hoot it must be to drive. They rev up to 8,5K rpm I think it was. Cool video haha 😁👌👌👌
Misha playing GT7 in real life with this ridiculous swap engine. 😅😅 we need more crazy owners like this guy.This video made my day.I can't stop laughing bro.😅
This looks like an absolute handful. It absolutely obliterates the front tires at over 150kph, what a beast😂. The fact that you wouldn't look twice if you saw this in traffic is hilarious. One of the best sleepers ever🎉
@@sanpepsiman1277 reached 192 with 55HP and 189 with the one of my cousin. It's a lot faster than was advertised, just it take really long straight line with few occasionnal down to be able to reach it. If for instance you go down and reach 165 it will keep that speed unless you have to climb after. With few of these I managed to reach those 190's on a straight line. Form top center to south of france, I arrived 2hours before they expected and it would already be pretty fast if I arived in 8hours, but it only took me less than 6hours being full speed all the way. No one will ever go faster because nowadays too many radars. I consider 140km/h normal speed for this vehicule with 55hp. It's the minimal speed required for the "cabriolet" roof to stop making noise.
The original Twingo was an absolute blast. The chassis was (and i don't say this lightly) superb, and the lightness of it enabled me to really push her in the corners. The grip was insane.
I used a Twingo for pizza delivery. There was a long, sloping street with two traffic circles. At the first circle, the brakes got warm. At the second circle, the pedal fell to the metal every time. Pure fun to drive. When the brakes were gone you could use the wind drag to brake....
Misha was all smiles - I would love more content with you driving extreme machines like this that are built not bought. By the looks of it, you had more fun in this than a Lambo or Ferrari! Kudos to the owner for building an insane little car.
And flash the cars he is about to overtake... With the mandatory "waving hand" stuck to the rear window wiper once you leave their 100 k€ cars in the dust... 😭😭
I knew he was going to see you!! And I was just waiting for it! From a Frenchman :) And especially that engine... My father has a Honda Civic Type R Championship White Edition (90 units sold in France) tuned to stage 2 (everything inside and outside is original) and it puts out around 250 hp and a lot of dB high in the RPMs. I grew up with that sound; my father used to pick me up from daycare every evening, and the staff knew when he was there (the noise, haha). Thank you very much! And always exemplary driving, bravo Misha, you are a true example when it comes to respecting others, politeness, and being ready to react to any dangerous situation.
Loved it :D I giggled the whole time like a little kid just like you Misha, would love to see more crazy builds just like this. We had 3 Twingos at once one time :) Good little cars
I have rarely seen Misha have such a smile for entire lap, I believe the last time was a GC8 nostalgia drive? 😂 Having 500+hp in Twingo is stupid, but I too would LOVE to experience it once & get scared to death by it, too. I love it!
I have never see Misha get that much fun on a lap. Big smile and laught all the time, that was awesome. I got a smile for the rest of the day. Amazing car too.
Misha, I have seen you a lot of times having fun in compact hit hatches, but this is from another level. The joy and fun you showed is insane and a true apriciation.
If you've always wanted to take a bull by the horns and dance with him on the edge of a volcano that's already spewing lava with a devilish grin on your face, then you're on par with this, this, this,... cute and yet evil sleeper. Top conversion and the standard exhaust tailpipe plus the trailer hitch are the icing on the cake 🤣
I love the rear view camera. The cars approaching you in turns look like curious animal sniffing a weird thing they found, just to get completely left in the dust as soon as a straight comes hahaha
This is just crazy and freaking amazing at the same time. Very fun to watch and makes you very happy which is good to see. It was hurting to hear the rev limiter so many times, but hopefully the owner didn’t mind.
Misha. you call those people NIMBY (Not In My Back Yard). They move where they want and then complain about the things that have been going on there for decades. My old neighbourhood has people complaining about the planes flying into Toronto International Airport. Anyways, that Twingo is insane. it's always the small cars that bring the biggest smiles.
This made me think back (nostalgically) about all the carefree upgrades my friends and I used to do to cars two decades ago. Loved it. Makes you realise pure joy can come in many different guises.
I think that is the most excited i have ever seen Misha doing a lap. I love watching these little sleepers overtake fast expensive cars. Looks like so much fun
Misha about people reving their cars for no purpose: Why you do that, it is stupid... Misha with K20 turbo in a Twingo: Open the exhaus valve (ta-ta-ta-taaaa)
I think with better springs, shocks and stiffening up the chassis to help with body roll, this would be an absolute weapon even for FWD tiny car. Looks like fun
The smile on your face as your we’re going through the gears bouncing off the rev limiter said everything in the opening of this video. Only true car guys will understand. Hilarious and awesome @ the same time because we understand.😎 Awesome build!
This reminds of back in the old Forza Motorsport days (when they were good) building a crazy high hp shitbox that could only be good in straight lines for certain classes. Pure joy
I really enjoy this guy driving, like he is having so much fun from the ride IT FEELS AUTHENTIC. I mean anyone would bust in laugh while you have a car that was meant to be 130hp MAX!!! turn into a Nurb machine
Your grandma is driving a Twingo like that and in the traffic 🚦 you have a guy in a fancy Porsche, the light is green and the Porsche is still processing what happened 😅 what a hot car , love it 😍
Is there a way to take a two seater Twingo (the one for fleet cars/professionnals with no rear seat and a covered trunk area) and turn it into a mid engine ? It will leave space at the front for a better suspension (double wishbone) and a better weight distribution... It might be dumb, but this 500+ Twingo is already dumb (and that's why we love it!).
thats probably doable and would be way faster however keep in mind that there are 3 problems 1- it would be wayyy harder to develop- custom suspension and reinforçing the chassis to mount the engine and finding a solution for the transmission would be quite time consuming and expensive 2- it would be harder to disguise as a sleeper, althoughbprobably still doable in a way, maybe it would just look like a twingo with a rollcage, so not totally incognito. 3- too much power in a fwd car is just a waste, but too much power in a rwd car is a hazard
The rear seat in a twingo is only grabbed by two nuts and a hook to move it, and there are some mid engine ones by lanzante but they have a lame rover V8 engine
Don't worry Misha, I'll come back with other modifications, always more power with improved road holding
ah ça on en doute pas

One of best videos so far , I want to see that beast again with a race track setup ready to attack anything on nurburgring
As a frenchman, i am very impressed. Props to the guy for fitting le K20 in le Twingo.
Le frérot roi du game après Jessica, Misha. ❤
Mdr l'accent français qui ressort fort
C'est notre particularité à l'international, soyons en fiers. ☺️@@Hvy1q34
Héhé, ça pousse!
"As a frenchman" / "spanishcarguy"...
Something is wrong... I can feel it!
I drove my moms (obviously stock) twingo at 155 on the autobahn on my way home and was allready scared to death. Cant imagine driving one with this much power at 200km/h down foxhole. Stock 55hp would still move you around quickly enough, but it was allways understeered. But it is one of the most practical cars you can own. With the seats down there is so much storage space.
I did 179 indicated with a 75hp one, a bit sketchy yeah 😂
Fun times, first car i got to drive regularly and trashed it around the alps it was awesome 😊
@@looped7979 I did 180 in mine and honestly thought the engine would pop out of the hood it was so loud x) also took a hell of a downhill straight
The scariest part about such cars in my opinion are the seats. My uncle had a Micra 160SR with 110hp. While not much, it was definetely quick around a twisty backroad. Only problem, when you got a little bit too enthusiastic, you started sliding off the seats, which were standart Micra seats.
@@looped7979 did 180 speedo with a 99' clio, never been so scared in my life, 75hp also. took quite a while to get there and when i finally let off, noticed that head gasket was not happy at all
This has to be the best video I've seen. Misha absolutely wetting himself. Priceless! And what a car! Those cars behind him thinking WTF 🤣🤣🤣
"I am not doing anything crazy, because I dont want to die" Goes through a corner with 160 kph🤣.. Misha I love you
Original twingo weighs 790 kg, 500kg in the front and 290 in the back, my parents had one and the car way already very understeery, it loved to go straight in the middle of a curve, i guess this one is the same. My understanding is that the car was made like this to prevent the very light back try to go in front in the curves. I guess this one is even heavier on the front, hence the feelings you had on the curves.
Thank you for explaining it, it was super weird!
@@mgcharoudin It probably has no rear anti roll bar (apart from the torsion beam itself), a rear ARB would massively reduce the understeer and probably transform that car.
@@mgcharoudin
Suspension and the geometry, with almost zero original caster, doesn't help at all 😉
same as the Peugeot 206, except that car actually oversteers while being fwd lol
@@yobama8344peugeot 206 is the best, i had the 1.1 n/a with 60hp, most fun car ever
This is the craziest car I've seen in a long while! Props to the owner! Twingo is 🔥
It's a K20T with a Twingo attached! Absolutely bonkers, love it!
This dude is a nut job, only a french guy is going to put 500hp in a twingo lol! Misha didn't stop laughing and you have Porches and GTRs struggling to over take.
The twingo is by far and away my favourite small hatchback ever, so this is fucking insane, hilarious and just amazing.
For those who are curious the K20 engine is a Honda 4 cyl. 16V was used originally in the Civic Type R year 2001-2006. I had one of those when I was 19 and they are magnificent engines. I can only imagine if you put a turbo on there what a hoot it must be to drive. They rev up to 8,5K rpm I think it was. Cool video haha 😁👌👌👌
There is also non-type r version with 150 hp, type r have 200-240hp
Misha playing GT7 in real life with this ridiculous swap engine. 😅😅 we need more crazy owners like this guy.This video made my day.I can't stop laughing bro.😅
Je l'ai rarement vu avec un tel sourire sur le visage de ce pilote, superbe travail sur ce Swap bravo au mécano
Probably one of the best laps I've ever seen Misha drive, and one of his most enjoyable ha! The King of Sleeper cars. Owner was so cool about it ✌
This looks like an absolute handful. It absolutely obliterates the front tires at over 150kph, what a beast😂. The fact that you wouldn't look twice if you saw this in traffic is hilarious. One of the best sleepers ever🎉
To be honest if I see a Twingo I these days I look twice. Much more so than with a modern Porsche etc.
@@kadajawi2 good point
Quel bonheur de voir la Kwingo entre les mains de Micha, un peu la reconnaissance internationale de ta préparation Ed, chapeau l'artiste mecano 😀👍
😊
this is not a sleeper but a terrible nightmare... even for BMW drivers🤣
for real, they were questioning their whole existence
The fact that the speedometer can’t display more than 199 km/h says a lot about the shitbox it was supposed to be. Incredible to see that !
The original car had like 86 hp and a max speed of 160 km/h
1.2 8v 55, 60 or 1.2 16v 75 hp
@@sanpepsiman1277Which is faster than a GR Corolla is allowed to go.
@@sanpepsiman1277 reached 192 with 55HP and 189 with the one of my cousin. It's a lot faster than was advertised, just it take really long straight line with few occasionnal down to be able to reach it. If for instance you go down and reach 165 it will keep that speed unless you have to climb after. With few of these I managed to reach those 190's on a straight line. Form top center to south of france, I arrived 2hours before they expected and it would already be pretty fast if I arived in 8hours, but it only took me less than 6hours being full speed all the way. No one will ever go faster because nowadays too many radars. I consider 140km/h normal speed for this vehicule with 55hp. It's the minimal speed required for the "cabriolet" roof to stop making noise.
The original Twingo was an absolute blast. The chassis was (and i don't say this lightly) superb, and the lightness of it enabled me to really push her in the corners. The grip was insane.
This must be the must fun anyone ever had in a Twingo that didn't involve the horizontal mambo.
i don't think there's enough space for that in a twingo
You know you build something Special when half of the Video Misha is laughing and smiling ! xD 7:40 had a smile myself after seeing the Tacho
Big thanks to the owner for bringing this thing and making us all smile!! 🤣🤣🤣
Awesome build 👏🏻💯
This sleeper gives supercar owners sleepless nights 😆
I used a Twingo for pizza delivery. There was a long, sloping street with two traffic circles. At the first circle, the brakes got warm. At the second circle, the pedal fell to the metal every time. Pure fun to drive. When the brakes were gone you could use the wind drag to brake....
imagine what guy in M2 5:25 thought preparing to take over....🤣🤣🤣 this car is SICK & EPIC!
Would love to see his reaction 😂😂😂
This has clearly awaken Misha's inner child
Mannnnn I have not grinned so much for a long long time! Living vicariously through Misha! Love it!
Love that he left steelies on it. Proper sleeper!
Yeah 😂
I have never seen Misha smiling/laughing this much with any other car TRHOUGHOUT THE WHOLE RIDE. Hahahaha 😂😂
This is the best thing I''ve ever seen, probably the new best video on your channel more fun to watch then any of the other super cars you've done!
12:30 you could see the look on his face that he was preparing to fang it out of the corner past the porsche!! this is the best vid in ages, love it.
Misha was all smiles - I would love more content with you driving extreme machines like this that are built not bought. By the looks of it, you had more fun in this than a Lambo or Ferrari! Kudos to the owner for building an insane little car.
"im afraid of 6th gear" - "me too" got me lmao
To stop this thing from spinning, it needs some car lashes for added downforce on the front.
Would definitely finish this build😂
And flash the cars he is about to overtake... With the mandatory "waving hand" stuck to the rear window wiper once you leave their 100 k€ cars in the dust... 😭😭
I knew he was going to see you!! And I was just waiting for it! From a Frenchman :)
And especially that engine... My father has a Honda Civic Type R Championship White Edition (90 units sold in France) tuned to stage 2 (everything inside and outside is original) and it puts out around 250 hp and a lot of dB high in the RPMs. I grew up with that sound; my father used to pick me up from daycare every evening, and the staff knew when he was there (the noise, haha). Thank you very much!
And always exemplary driving, bravo Misha, you are a true example when it comes to respecting others, politeness, and being ready to react to any dangerous situation.
Loved it :D I giggled the whole time like a little kid just like you Misha, would love to see more crazy builds just like this. We had 3 Twingos at once one time :) Good little cars
This car is the very definition of "if I die while driving, don't be sad because I was probably smiling when it happened".
I have rarely seen Misha have such a smile for entire lap, I believe the last time was a GC8 nostalgia drive? 😂
Having 500+hp in Twingo is stupid, but I too would LOVE to experience it once & get scared to death by it, too. I love it!
I have never see Misha get that much fun on a lap. Big smile and laught all the time, that was awesome. I got a smile for the rest of the day. Amazing car too.
Misha, I have seen you a lot of times having fun in compact hit hatches, but this is from another level. The joy and fun you showed is insane and a true apriciation.
If you've always wanted to take a bull by the horns and dance with him on the edge of a volcano that's already spewing lava with a devilish grin on your face, then you're on par with this, this, this,... cute and yet evil sleeper.
Top conversion and the standard exhaust tailpipe plus the trailer hitch are the icing on the cake 🤣
I love the rear view camera. The cars approaching you in turns look like curious animal sniffing a weird thing they found, just to get completely left in the dust as soon as a straight comes hahaha
This is just crazy and freaking amazing at the same time. Very fun to watch and makes you very happy which is good to see.
It was hurting to hear the rev limiter so many times, but hopefully the owner didn’t mind.
He said not to worry, it's a K-series and loves it :)
its a honda engine, it needs the rev limiter to stay healthy 😄
This the best car you've driven in a longgggg time Misha. Please do more of these types of video's😂😂
Congrats to the builder! Nice job getting the engine in there! Now that will be a sleeper when the gear is upgraded!❤
The rocketing past the Porsche Cayman at 12:30 bouncing off the limiter 😅
LMAO Mishas smile tell me everything. Haven't seen him smile this wide in any porsche or lamborghini. This is the ultimate troll weapon
Awesome video, what machine that thing is 😂. Misha's laughing says it all, and the "im afraid of 6th gear", what a one liner 😂😂
I feel honored that this car of all cars is being featured in the video where my name first shows up as a supporter. I love it!
Misha. you call those people NIMBY (Not In My Back Yard). They move where they want and then complain about the things that have been going on there for decades. My old neighbourhood has people complaining about the planes flying into Toronto International Airport. Anyways, that Twingo is insane. it's always the small cars that bring the biggest smiles.
Ive watched this a bunch of times now and everytime ive got a big smile on my face 😂 such a great video
This made me think back (nostalgically) about all the carefree upgrades my friends and I used to do to cars two decades ago. Loved it. Makes you realise pure joy can come in many different guises.
I think that is the most excited i have ever seen Misha doing a lap. I love watching these little sleepers overtake fast expensive cars. Looks like so much fun
Look at Misha's face, just smiling with the whole mouth and the glitter in his eyes like a kid, awesome!!! Purest experience of joy
Misha about people reving their cars for no purpose:
Why you do that, it is stupid...
Misha with K20 turbo in a Twingo:
Open the exhaus valve (ta-ta-ta-taaaa)
Absolutely one of my most favorite videos so far this year!! what a car!!
I think with better springs, shocks and stiffening up the chassis to help with body roll, this would be an absolute weapon even for FWD tiny car.
Looks like fun
06:57 Bonus Shot It's like the car that Misha overtook only has 60 horsepower. 😜
12:25 Misha is driving Mr. Bean chasing Porsche.
😂😂😂
It's like the Porsche thought nothing, and the Twingo decided LOL BYE 😂😂
@@davidmoore4615 lol😂😂😂lol
The smile on your face as your we’re going through the gears bouncing off the rev limiter said everything in the opening of this video. Only true car guys will understand. Hilarious and awesome @ the same time because we understand.😎
Awesome build!
This was THE BEST. Please try to find more unique stuff like this!!
"Im afraid of 6th gear!"
"Me too"
😂😂😂😂
Smilling entire lap😅
Major kudos to the insane owner who gave this little car it's huge wings. You can tell this car is living it's best life :D
This reminds of back in the old Forza Motorsport days (when they were good) building a crazy high hp shitbox that could only be good in straight lines for certain classes. Pure joy
I would pay a lot to see the face of others drivers passed by a stock looking Twingo 😂
7:00 i wish i could see these guys reaction ahahahaha
Im sure it’s the most seen part with lots of laughs 😅
I really enjoy this guy driving, like he is having so much fun from the ride
IT FEELS AUTHENTIC. I mean anyone would bust in laugh while you have a car that was meant to be 130hp MAX!!! turn into a Nurb machine
One of the most entertaining runs in a while lol
Your grandma is driving a Twingo like that and in the traffic 🚦 you have a guy in a fancy Porsche, the light is green and the Porsche is still processing what happened 😅 what a hot car , love it 😍
As an owner of a twingo, i love this😅
Is there a way to take a two seater Twingo (the one for fleet cars/professionnals with no rear seat and a covered trunk area) and turn it into a mid engine ? It will leave space at the front for a better suspension (double wishbone) and a better weight distribution... It might be dumb, but this 500+ Twingo is already dumb (and that's why we love it!).
Good question, asked myself the same
thats probably doable and would be way faster however keep in mind that there are 3 problems
1- it would be wayyy harder to develop- custom suspension and reinforçing the chassis to mount the engine and finding a solution for the transmission would be quite time consuming and expensive
2- it would be harder to disguise as a sleeper, althoughbprobably still doable in a way, maybe it would just look like a twingo with a rollcage, so not totally incognito.
3- too much power in a fwd car is just a waste, but too much power in a rwd car is a hazard
The rear seat in a twingo is only grabbed by two nuts and a hook to move it, and there are some mid engine ones by lanzante but they have a lame rover V8 engine
Considering Renault themselves put a fucking V6 in a Clio...
@@AlldaylongRock yeah a 4 cylinder in the rear of a twingo would make a suitable little brother
Respect for this build!
With Inspector Colombo's old Peugeot, the raincoat, the cigar and the dog behind, it would look even more impressive!
Da hat der Franzmann aber was echt krankes zusammengetütelt.... Ein unfassbarer Sleeper.... Hut ab👌🏻
