And about the engine power measurement:

There are different methods for measuring power, test conditions such as ambient temperature, air pressure and accessory loss could be different, thus the same engine could obtain different power rating by different methods. The most commonly used methods are:

EEC: European standard. Measure at 99kPa and 25°C. Rated in kW.
SAE: American standard. Measure at 99kPa and 25°C. Rated in hp. 1kW = 1.341hp (SAE).
DIN: German standard. Measure at 101.3kPa and 20°C. Rated in hp (ps). 1kW = 1.360hp (DIN).
JIS: Japanese standard. Theoretically same as DIN, but we always find it is actually smaller.
British horsepower: same as SAE. Rated in bhp (could be confused with brake horse power).

In other words, 300hp (SAE) = 300bhp (British) > 300hp (DIN) > 300ps (JIS)

Erm, now I'm confused. Why do some places list this as 1001 horsepower, and others at 987?

EGG-ZACTLY

While some are surprised about the "low" hp rating, I'm pretty surprised how quick this moves for having that much power. Another words, tweaking this setup for some me hp/tq could leave you with a 2.0 0-60.........after you are done spinning your tires for 5 seconds.
