Even #502 isn't that fast. If it manages to produce 250HP (which is a
reasonable guess, assuming the engine has some upgrades besides just the
turbos), that would be enough to make the car accelerate 0-60 in under 6
seconds. That's pretty speedy and faster than any $25,000 car of the
period- although, of course, the price would probably be much higher for
the turbo version.

To go 0-60 in 4.2 seconds, the DeLorean would require approximately 400
HP. I think that is beyond the capabilities of the PRV in street trim.
