Volkswagen Polo with 1000 horsepower

Yielding over 1000 horsepower from a 16 valve four cylinder engine is an amazing mechanical accomplishment. This takes serious dedication, in depth knowledge of engine building, access to a slew of tools, and massive amounts of will power. It's not easy rebuilding engines to this level, and can take months and possibly years to complete. It's always a project and never done, but when this Volkswagen Polo stepped up to the dyno it dominated. Over 1000 horsepower is insane!

 This is a serious build, and it spits fire. The exhaust gas rich in fuel from the turbo tune ignited and created an effect known as afterfire. When this fuel rich exhaust hits the hot turbo housing and exhaust pipes, it explodes. This is just the right amount of after fire, and can be adjusted by monitoring air to fuel ratios with a wideband gauge. The 1000 horsepower Volkswagen Polo was built by AME Racing and Speedmakers Vogtland.Great job everyone, this is the sickest V-dub I've ever seen.
