  • Rob meets high-horsepower tuner Tony Palo - of T1 Race Development - and gets a lesson in building ridiculously fast street cars.
    But we don't stop there. Rob tags along to a shakedown test of a V10 Audi R8 with well into four digits of turbocharged horsepower (2,061hp and 1,246lb-ft of torque) at the drag strip. Of course, the stock axles can handle the stress, right?

    Cool if ur chasing a record and competing in half mile events but turning it up all the way is wild. A lower map of like 12 or 1300 hp would prob be good in the streets if u don’t do so many digs it will prob last way longer. The digs with the sticky tires on the sticky prepped surface are way more stressing than the half mile rolls

    • @zethloveless7238
      @zethloveless7238 5 месяцев назад +1

      In the U.S., octane ratings - the anti-knock index - are an average of two engine measurements: the motor octane number (MON) and the research octane number (RON). Other countries use only the RON rating at fuel pumps, which tends to be a little higher than a fuel's anti-knock index. We use the avg of the two to determine aki whilst you just use Ron
