I like 959's more then 928's but I love JET ENGINES. once you work on one the sound the power. If I had the money I'd learn to fly and buy a a old Mig 21 -

one question, is it that quick?
looking at the specs ("The result is a 365 horsepower monster (though the engine is rated up to 550hp) with a claimed 700-plus lb ft of torque") it has bucket loads of torque, but not monster figures for power etc.. in fact i think a supercharger bolted onto the original engine would give u the same. but it is a jet engine.
