I had read about it in SportsCompactCar, and at the time he was running the
destroked 2.3.  He had an 'unspecified' alloy block that he wasn't sure would
handle the boost.  I figured it must be a Sport block... What crappy engine
blocks Audi makes, that we have to worry whether or not they will take 900hp
;)

Also, to correct myself, the HPA 'Golfzilla' makes 442hp not 412hp. And for
those considering it, it would cost $60k for HPA to replicate it, where it is
*only* $25k for the TT kit.  Importing the Golf 4Motion rear pan and welding
it in add up I guess.
