No, we're not talking about a Sasquatch with a codename made out of letters and numbers but a bonkers Mercedes-Benz A 45 AMG four-wheeled monster.
With the standard car already being the hottest hot hatch of them all, Rebellion Automotive somehow decided to make it even hotter. Because hey, why have 360 hp and 450 Nm (332 lb ft) of torque when you can have 435 hp and 570 Nm (420 lb ft) of torque?
Technically, Rebellion Automotive is offering two power kits for the smallest 4Matic AMG – one for the tight-pursed who only want a tad more power from their A 45 AMG and one for the power-hungry who want to give supercars a run for their money.
The Stage 1 system – which for example is fitted to the grey A 45 AMG demo car in the gallery bellow – consists of a plug and play ECU that can be installed in just 15 minutes.
Costing just £899, it doesn't increase the stock peak boost pressure of the turbocharger and yet it offers 40 hp and 70 Nm (52 lb ft) of more torque.
The Stage 2 system is a bit more complicated and it also costs more, but the return on investment is even higher.
Costing £3999, the system is actually a step up from the Stage 1, so the plug and play ECU is sent back to Rebellion Automotive along with the car's turbine, who then send back an improved software and a hybrid turbo for the money.
With 75 hp and 120 Nm (88 lb ft) of torque more than stock, the white demo car in the adjacent photos can apparently go from naught to 97 km/h (60 mph) in just 3.9 seconds, while the 200 km/h (125 mph) mark can be reached in 13 seconds.
Stick around because an even more hardcore Stage 3 version is coming, and we can hear Nissan GT-R driver legs trembling from here.
