  • 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?

    I could have spent hours just listening to Tony share the secrets of making that much power and how to put it to the ground. So effectively that you snap beefy stock axles haha

    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 Před 5 měsíci +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
