Ah, the boxer engine. Is there a more iconic engine (yes there are, of course)? I like a good V8 rumble, but as a lover of all cars, I can more than appreciate the howl of a small engine like a boxer.

Australian tuning company GotitRext has taken a flat four EJ series motor and taken it straight to eleven. As a matter of fact, they went so far past eleven, I don't even think they're in double digits anymore. Packed with a Garrett GTW3884 turbocharger that peaks at about 40 PSI , this engine produces 610 HP at the wheels.

The most amazing thing about this highly tuned engine is its insane ability to rev to dizzying heights. 12,000 RPMs is not something you see and hear everyday. The engine is fitted into what's essentially a test body at the moment, and though it wasn't expected to live long term, so far the car has survived every dyno run and track day thrown at it.

The video describes the car as feeling like a motorbike on four wheels due to its low curb weight and insane engine. This thing sounds like it would be a blast around the racetrack!
