As a Merc fanatic, that is literally a perfect sleeper, running on Devil's Juice. I would love to know what it would VMAX at.
Just... insane.. I love it! VIDEOS PLEASE!

To complete the sleeper look can I suggest an IAM badge on the front grill and possibly a box of tissues on the parcel shelf? biggrin

I dont like sleeper cars in general but you have done something pretty special with this! I don't like the alloys though paperbag

This is awesome. We need more information and some videos. Can you get the power down? How smokey? How fast? Is this a DieselpumpUK job? Wonderful car... But more required!

Can someone explain to me how this is making so much power from stock internals? Is it purely due to the boost levels? Surely the lag is horrendous?

Look at the power curve, I would say it is!

Absolutely incredible, my hats off to you. It's brilliant in every way!

Err, why? You did see how well the 'Focus STDCi Estate' went down?

I love it!

As Clarkson would say, "Holy moly" and "What, in the name of all that's holy???" !!!!!
Quite stunning, just hope the brakes are up to the job!
As previous though, how did you get an 8000rpm red line instead of the usual fare of circa 4.5-5000?
And just to add, I'd definitely put some Stuttgart dustbin lid plastic wheel covers on a set of steels, just to tad DTi the deception, and finish it off by wrapping the door in green vinyl and having a 'Taxi' light on the roof; I'm giggling just thinking about that image as some yoof gets blown away by some Uber taxi....
