They don't say enough about the power mods. The 1M uses the N54... the same engine found in the 135, 335, 535, etc from 2007-2010. You can currently get 550 whp out of a tt N54, but have to go single turbo to go above that. I was curious to see if they just used the same formula that others are using on the 135/335, or if they had developed something else.

My sentiments exactly. Also, the 1M is not exactly a light-weight car either. I think many are over-exagerating how fast thing thing really is.

It's not exactly heavy either. 521hp ought to be plenty enough to satisfy anyone's lateral g-force demands (not to mention the torque).
