Can't wait to thrash this car on the dyno! It lights up the tires in 3rd gear at 5# of boost Runs a little rough at the moment but Cal's magic touch will set it straight.

I don't even think sick is the right word to describe that ride, I would use afflicted, stricken or aguish but all in a good way.

Can't wait to see what kind of numbers that ride throws down.........more pics when you have time.

That is some awesome fabrication work! Very clean installation. Can't wait for more updates, should be one fun ride. What's the ride height, will it drive on the street?

Glad you guys like the car. To answer a few of your questions. The intake is a holley stealthram thats been worked over a bunch to open and smooth her out. The ride height is goin to be set at zero tire grap in the front and about a half inch of gap in the back wells, lowest point under the car sits at 2 1/2 inches. And yes its gonna be a street driven car. Its not gonna go back to daily driving duty but it will see alot more road time then track time.

Also if your wondering to ive got a GN too. so im not totally outta place here lol.
