please excuse Bob Jones. being an automotive noob, he's never heard of 10 second civics or integras, or neon SRT-4's, or.... you get the picture.

This setup better include a LSD. Otherwise this thing will produce a ton of torque steer and understeer. Still, I bet it's a beast.

Mark Reider Jul 04, 2012
That's awesome! I would just like to have to see the look on people's faces when you burn them at the lights and just for the huge grin it would put on my face.

Lee Goodman Jul 04, 2012
350 bhp in a front wheel drive fiat 500 thats just insane

tyrael Jul 03, 2012
real numbers real car right there

Jon Ashley Jul 03, 2012
dial in the right tune setup and it should handle pretty well. just gotta control that right pedal...

Matty Michaels Jul 03, 2012
A cobalt ss can handle like 300hp and 400tq easily.

Brady Fereday Jul 03, 2012
Ya it will bob have you heard of an LSD or the focus RS that thing handles well with 300hp

Bob Jones Jul 03, 2012
Fwd morons it wont work with 350hp and front wheel drive

Stephen Tyler Learn Jul 03, 2012
Is this the same company that made the rwd conversion?

Nick Schnee Jul 03, 2012
Is the track version street legal? (stupid question, yes, but I'd just like to know that for sure) It would be really awesome if it was.

Jason Brower Jul 03, 2012
This is the next hyabusa smart car!

Zack Hartman Jul 03, 2012
Jesus that's unbelievable haha

chikenbag Jul 03, 2012

Brady Fereday Jul 03, 2012
That car is going to haul ass at 350hp 0_0 it's already a fast nimble car lol xD

Brady Fereday Jul 03, 2012
Guys they worked on the ecu also lol

Jordan Jackson Jul 03, 2012
It would help the engine breath better, but they had to do a little more than just the exhaust, I mean come on

Carlos Ernesto Garcia Jul 03, 2012
I feel dumb asking but they got 70hp from an exhaust?

Sorry Roger i'm still learning english...

Aaron Cartwright Jul 04, 2012
Oddly cool, and I'm left wondering if I'd fit in the thing, but it looks fun!

Roger James Franco Jul 04, 2012
"odly proportionated" don't you proportioned...

Ben Norton Jul 04, 2012
Amazing! Bolt the seat right to the floor instead of a rail and you're set! That'd probably give you another 4 inches

Samuel Reid Jul 04, 2012
Oddly proportionated but still very cool and looks meanly fast !

cardude2000 Jul 03, 2012

Mike Conrad Jul 03, 2012

Brady Fereday Jul 03, 2012
We can just cruise with our heads out the sun roof hahahhahahahahahhaha xD

Zeus Mocha Jul 03, 2012

Paul Lissona Jul 03, 2012

Lukas Lebs Jul 03, 2012
Looks like a spaceship on wheels :D

Zachary Maurer Jul 03, 2012

Brady Fereday Jul 03, 2012
Now that I think about it I'm 6'2" wonder if I would fit in there lol xD

Bijan Jahanpanah Jul 03, 2012
The car looks oddly proportioned the doors are too big for the windows

chikenbag Jul 03, 2012
wow, that looks great, like a proper hot hatch. and with 350hp, gotta hit 60 in under four seconds probably...

A5D5A5M Jul 03, 2012
They are amazing to drive , the front should of been left alone but still looks good!

Cameron Duncan Condy Jul 03, 2012
I would drive that. Would be so fun with 350hp and the looks you would get with that chopped top.

Aaron Crisp Jul 03, 2012
Dodge Neon hatchback?!? Haha just kidding.

Petre Draghici Jul 03, 2012
Probably this is fast. But it looks...squashed.

Wyatt Gordon Jul 03, 2012
It is going to be very quick, but they absolutely ruined the body

Mr Two Jul 03, 2012

americanmuscle Jul 03, 2012

Patrick Schalk Jul 03, 2012

John Serely Jul 03, 2012

Devin Babyn Jul 03, 2012

Brady Fereday Jul 03, 2012

Jordan Jackson Jul 03, 2012

Jordan Jackson Jul 03, 2012

Kevin Carlin Jul 03, 2012

Carlos Ernesto Garcia Jul 03, 2012

Rashid AlGhafli Jul 11, 2012
I think those exhausts are a bit small to handle 350hp

Antonio Falsetti Jul 03, 2012
Yea and wider tires all around.

Danny Rodriiguez Jul 03, 2012
Needs more track to make more grip in the rear

Tyler James Beatty Jan 05, 2013
I bet this thing is like a missile being only 2,050 pounds and having 350 hp. This is a sexy machine

Trey Reilly Jul 03, 2012
How could anyone call this little beast ugly?! It demands respect both visually and performance-ly... Lol.
