The HP and torque numbers are misstated. As we all know, since the ICE and the electric motor reach their peak HP and torque numbers at different rpms, it is not simply a matter of adding the peak outputs from each power source to come up with a peak total.

The effects of the super charger would have to be fully plotted to determine total power. With this misstatement it would appear that Mugen is very early in this development and is way off from producing a consumer ready fully proven product.
