Lextreme Forums has a subforum for these engines, and a few guys seem to be running them now. Top Secret stuck one in a JZA80 with a couple turbos, rumoured to be 1000hp+ and aiming for a 400kmh+ top speed run, but the car ain't finished yet so who knows?

Apparently factory claimed figures are somewhat......understated

Haven't been lucky enough to find out for myself yet.
