Yup, that's what it takes to get that kind of performance.

Hmm, basically its considered the ultimate power upgrade (within reason and
budget) for the 4K/80/90 quattro cars. Basically, you can have an easy 200hp
in a 2800lb car, 0-60 of about 6 seconds or so, practically no competition on
the freeway, and a top speed only dictated by the revlimiter at 6500rpm in
5th. I've done swaps, and consulted others, that cost under $1500.
Considering the cost to aquire a clean starting point, figure there is
nothing aside from a 944t that can touch it for the money.
Imagine your car now with approximately double the hp and torque... sold now??

That would be a nice luxury I suppose...
