Yes... my friends 1000+ rwhp turbo camaro will pin your head to the back of the seat and feels like a big hill on a roller coaster.. as long as you are in the passenger seat, it doesnt feel as violent when you are driving.

hp/tq has nothing to do with the planted in seat feel, it's more in gearing. I'm not saying hp/tq doesn't have anything to do with it, I'm saying that traction would be an issue when it comes to jabbing the gas pedal. The gearing will be whats gonna keep ya in the seat.

i didnt really romp on it.... it was on the wastegate which is only 700ish... it scares the crap out of me to be honest. On 17psi the thing makes close to 900 and runs 9.1 @ 149 mph, hasnt cranked it to 22 psi yet, only on the dyno.

My friends TT 300zx throws you in the seat even when your driving. Its got aounrd 800rwhp. He lets me just take it out and drive it haha. It gets wheel hop going 50. Its insane! Once the turbos spool it just takes off its so ridiculous. Its fast without the turbos so when you hit the gas your like thrown back a little all ready and you think thats it til you hit around 4k+ and it builds all the boost omg. It just rockets its like someone else said with the rollercoaster.
