and i cant see that beast making much torque
The horse power figure is a joke, or so I hope. Any forced induction setup will stress parts that aren't set up for it. Why do you think they recommend rebuilding the bottom end of the motor when doing a turbo charger?

Whip:
When the steering wheel was first put into use in automobiles, it was called the "whip". The whip is what you used to control the horses on a stagecoach, hence the analogy. Many years later, various hip hop artists noticed that the Mercedes-Benz logo resembled a steering wheel. They then proceeded to use the old term "whip" to describe any Mercedes-Benz vehicle. The term has now been generalized to classify any expensive automobile or even a hoopty for that matter anymore......
used to be called ( wip )which means -work in progress- to

By April, I should have my new car. Ordered a black cherry Mazda CX-7 GT from the factory back in Jan. said it'd take about 10~12 weeks to get here since they're built in Japan

Got the VIN for it this past Wed., is saying it could be a late april delivery, depending on how things go at port when it gets shipped over to the US.
