As probably you know, few months ago we had the chance to have a good time with Kinetic Motorsports team and Mark Wilkins racing driver in a meet at Southwest Kia Mesquite dealer in Texas.

They also mention that isn’t the limit of the Theta II because increasing the boost they were able to juice out 550 hp out of this engine but that just produce too much wheel spin so they decided against it.

Here’s a video of the Optima Turbo running around Road Atlanta Circuit. Enjoy it! 😉
