I think not.

Person on YouTube says he has 147 HP, I don't beleave this for..

1. AEM CAI. I dyno'd my car at 115.7 HP so a ~5 HP gain2. Stillen Axel back (really just a muffler) Probably gave him more sound but no HP gain.3. It's CVT. How the hell do you dyno a CVT correctly?

IF it's one of you, sorry for calling you out but I think its lies. I commented. (CodeRed071)

Hes probably using ricer math. And hopefully thinking crank, not wheel hp.

125stock, CAI + 10, axle back 12. Equals ricer math crank hp of 147.

122 at the crank 109 to the wheels (stock) CAI and an axel back arent good for more then 10hp.

I dunno, how many type-R stickers does he have? each one gives an extra 5 HP, yo.

No he obviously has a turbo emblem on the back... that explains the large horsepower gain

redline when the motor is just starting to warm up... and he had his AC on the whole time if you have noticed the light that shows its on... waste of time to watch

Toward the bottom of the page, he said he is gonna put "Headers" on it, then it will be 145.

This is just another kid with access to a camera who want to look like a tuner not a poser. Look at the Honda Crave after all.

His car goes to 60 mph nearly hitting the red line as slowly as my car does at 2500 rpm LOL. DISPLACEMENT FTW.

Ive actually seen that on cobalts. I used to have a 240sx and I pulled up to one and he kept wanting to race me so we did and I just flat out smoked him. So when he caught up to me at the next light I asked him about the turbo since he had the emblem on the back and he said it was just for show...people like that just need to be slapped lol

Also takes a hair under 10 seconds. That doesn't sound like 147 HP to me.

Hair under 10 sec means it's just the same as the stock Versa.
