^ Look at Fred's Festiva and then look at your typical Turbo Dodge. If you still cant figure it out, end yourself.

okay, Fred's maybe, but that's not what was said. He was refering to just Festiva's in general.

The car was attempted to sell on e-bay, buyer expected $10,000, never sold. The 500HP number is more of a myth since no dyno or track runs were ever made, seriously fabricated car though could be up there HP wise. . .believe it is sitting still. BTW Dino Foutris built the Omni, not sure if thats a good thing or bad.

Yeah well I'd have a 500hp Festiva if I made it into a tube frame V8 drag car...

The motor thats in almost every "turbo" dodge, 2.2/2.5 SOHC 8V 4 banger.
These motors make that kind of power at extremes even more when a 16V head is swapped.

All i hear is rumors... seems like no one that drives a Dodge can back it up with proof.

Turbo dodges are not known to be dyno queens. . .need more than this?

2250lb Gary Donovan's K-car: 10.41@132MPH
2250lb (Local) Dean Stillie's Rampage: 10.64@135MPH
1900lb (Local CDN Record Holder) SMP's Shelby Charger: 8.90@156MPH
2645lb OhioRob's Shelby Charger: 10.07@139MPH

There are many many more examples

Not true, both OhioRob's Shelby Charger and Reeve's Omni(10.9) are driven on the street.
