Return of the juke?

Maybe the engine is stoopid over-built and it's a wink-wink nudge-nudge just to crank the boost? Maybe turbo swap? Maybe the rest of the drivetrain can handle plenty of power

Maybe that's just reaching...but so is a 115hp engine, ROFL!

Nissan is putting that whole 117hp on track with a Nismo.

Just like society, cars are becoming shallow. Nice on the outside, with nothing worth having in the heart. This is the new juke.
