Nizpro's 'Evolutionary' all alloy V8 quad turbocharged endurance engine has been designed for the hi-load duty cycles experienced with marine racing applications. With 80% of the engine's effective torque being developed from 2500 rpm, and a peak torque of 1120 ft lbs at 6200rpm, the requirement for automatic or multiple gear transmissions is unnecessary.

The sequential staged primary turbochargers deliver 1.2 bar of boost pressure at 1900 rpm resulting in exceptional torque and zero turbo lag before switching over to the main turbochargers.

With a maximum engine rotating limit of 8400 rpm lower gearing can be utilised to increase propeller shaft torque for added 'out of corner' acceleration without compromising top speed.

The use of exotic light-weight materials for internal engine components permits high engine rotational speeds without diminishing engine life.




The Nizpro-Visteon motorsport engine management system is responsible for controlling all of the electronic systems. These including spark and fuel calibrations based on the latest technology in speed density mapping; closed-loop feedback and self-learning of the spark, fuel and detonation control tables; dual electronic throttle control and idle speeds; and switching of the sequential turbocharger system based on internal torque calibration tables.

Significant safety functions and controls have been built into the engine management system which instantaneously takes control of the engine if any of the operating parameters are breached.
