At the heart of the project is a turbocharged 1.8 L Audi 20v inline-four. MotorWerks Racing installed the Audi motor using their swap kit. The motor benefits from IE forged rods, AEB big valve head, IE camshafts, dual valves springs, titanium retainers, and BorgWarner turbocharger. It produces 410 hp (301 kW) and 330 lb-ft (447 Nm) of torque to the wheels through a Porsche 987 transaxle and MotorWerks Racing axles.
