Plus the r&d would be astronomically expensive or dangerous, think about all the tuning that would need to be done, these motors are WAY different than a street motor you could just dyno not to mention what goes on inside them is totally different. All for what 4 seconds, they barely stay together for 4 seconds as it is think about how well it would need to be tuned and how many engines would fly apart trying to get it right $$$$$$$$$ they are 100k dollar motors
