The press release stated 450 to 700, so I presume there will be different boost levels for different tracks.

When CART folded up around 2006, they had made as much as 980 hp from 2.65 liter V-8's and 45 inches of mercury absolute. I would guess that the 2.2 liter V-6's will run between 40 inches and 50 inches. That's roughly 5 to 10 psi.

At 55 inches (12.5 psi) and 3.4 liters (209 ci), we made 1,102 hp at 10,000 rpm with the pushrod engine, but that was a 2-valve engine with almost NO development time 16+ years ago. We could easliy make 1,400 hp at the same boost levels today. Not bad for 209 cubic inches and no nitrous.

Now - Back to your regularly scheduled NASCAT Skater thread.
