Big DJ, If you know EVO's you'll know the one I mean.... green and shortened! Just noticed that I said it's a X when it's an IX and it's BHP has gone up.

Power: 950bhp & 700lb-ft with 9250rpm rev limit
Weight 1180Kg (Dry)
Top speed: 215mph + (201.43mph so far )
Best 0-60mph = 2.4 sec
Best 0-100mph = 4.3 sec
Best 0-150mph = 8.00 sec

I think the 0-100 is the most impressive figure (oh, and the BHP, and breaking 200mph)!!

A minor pulley & remap will not bring it to 640 bhp, however with some extra mods 600 isn't that hard to get with the 5.0 SC engine (even the 4.2 SC with a twin-screw can reach 600bhp). With some more serious mods a 5.0 SC might be able to get to 650and with a twin-screw 700 bhp would be very feasible ... RRS SDV6 HEV Dynamic
