What?!?!

It's a destroked 2.4L which allows it to rev to the moon.

Traction issues? Have you seen any of their latest videos.

2.2L's of displacement with a 10,000 rpm limit is tough to beat.

There were two 2.4L destroked engines built by AMS over the past couple of months. One engine went into their drag car and the other went into my car. I spent hours in Chicago going over this engine with them before I purchased it. It's amazing and is a real credit to AMS and their abilities.

lol, It is a destroked 2.4L, I am 100% sure, lol. Plus I am pretty sure 3240 knows as well, He has a very similar setup(GT42R) So that is almost as good as AMS. The car has only gone down the track on boost, the engine is built for nitrous, but for now its all boost, GT42R with a destroked 2.4L, There are a bunch of threads that hint on this set-up as well. Just have to put the pieces together.
