A 400hp FWD car is only impressive for wheelspin or against another FWD. Get into a 400hp AWD or RWD, it's a whole 'nother world

FWIW that was a pretty well done video. I mean, you guys are all bitching about how it sounds, but the thing is, if that was 95% of the other Youtube videos out there, all you'd be able to hear is wind. These guys obviously have some of the right equipment.

Lol I knew it was a breaker bar and everything, but the motor mount was what confused me, I thought that's what it was but wasn't sure. It would have mad a lot more sense on the flywheel, crank pulley, etc etc

Haha, no, I just didn't know what it was attached to, thought maybe the tensioner pulley.
