Excruciatingly fast. Completely derived, spiritless and dishonest.
I feel like pushing them to the limit is akin to taking an honours student for a fun night out.

Feat. Traum  
It was a VERY eventful day packed with brown pants moment, setting a PB, and lots of learning experiences. My write-up is in the HPDE thread.

The turbo diesel 1KZTE 3.0L is pretty decent engine, I know there are a few lil mods like an EGR block off plate I can do in the future to increase the power as well.

WOT is not something that equates to blowing an engine. Did I stand on the gas pedal going up some of the hills? Sure, but at no point was I pushing the engine too hard or did my temps ever go up.
