579hp on a 12A Drag car. Local guy here in Miami. What can I say, he likes 12A's.

He also has a customer with a 12A FB running like 25lbs of boost, as a daily driver, that runs low 10's.

Sick ****. Although I would really wonder what drivability would be like with that amount of HP.

That's nothing..
The Puerto Ricans on the island run 35-40 lbs on their drag cars.

I don't know how they do it either though.. That IS alot of boost.

Crazy ****.. But they run hard..
