You might want to sit down for this. I was literally rocking back and forth in my chair like a mental patient after I scrolled down and read the statistics. *while rocking* "They made a 12.9L engine? No...And it fits in that car? No, it's not possible. This can't be true...It revs higher than my 4cyl corolla? *silence* No. It produces 1300 lb ft of torque? *runs hands through hair in disbelief and a feeling of shear amazement at the same time* This is not a car. It will literally tear your body in half when you touch the gas pedal." I still cannot wrap my head around this car, and I've been staring at it for ten minutes now. This...I...no. Uh uh. I still cannot believe it. This thing beat the world record for torque...in ANYTHING! This is truly an amazing car.

No Duwe, those are just constant diameter air horns with air/fuel ratio enhancers. Trust me, it's fuel injected.
