186 might be a bit optimistic, but similarly equipped MTI 48 cats can run 160+ so in ideal conditions it might get close.

They also unveiled their automotive version of the 1650, the QC4v, at the last SEMA show, but I haven't heard much about it recently.

It would be interesting to see. Since both are MTI products, it's probably not that far-fetched of an idea. I know the CNN article and the video say it's equipped with twin Merc 1350s, but at the Miami show it was stated that those would be replaced at some point with twin 1650s.

But what about the bubbles?!?

Definitely Matt Millen's doing.

Very true, I can't refudiate that.

All valid points I'm sure, but could you make one minor change?
