I can't speak for everyone, but anytime I get an email update to this thread, I get excited when it has pictures of the latest/greatest. This car is a work of art and belongs in the NCM.

Want to know how we are going to plant all this new power this year? Just take a look at this RPM Transmissions TH400 conversion with custom 9" IRS setup! Billet adapter plates, billet bell housing, and a 1.86/1.31 gear ratio! Get ready for some new records!

What's the final word on this thing running a mile event?

No final drive tall enough?

The final word is that I don't have the transmission setup for the mile... to run the mile I would need to convert the car back to a 6 speed. To do that for just 1 event would be way too costly and the rewards for doing so are minimal at best.

If you can find someone that wants to foot the bill to convert the car for a mile event, then let me know and I'll entertain it. Otherwise, I'll stick to the drag strip which is what my car is designed for.

That is so gorgeous.

Couple questions--what is the orange/white wire coming out of the compressor side? Some sensor?

Do you have to run a scavenge pump for the oil return? The returns look so far from the oil pan.

That is a turbo speed sensor and we will be running a 7 stage dry sump pump that will have a scavange section on it.

Wow, you can measure turbo impeller speed? Thats crazy. How fast do they spin? 150k?

What size turbo chargers did you go with. I didn't realize Tial started working on housings for the larger frame turbo's already ! Looks bad ***.

May be over kill ... Those great turbine housing castings when polished and coated look trick to !

We are running the new GTX551r Billet Turbos (88mm) with a 1.15 exhaust housing...

That looks good!

Just curious, but why didn't you guys mount the inner cooler inside the car? It's going to be real nose heavy with the weight of both turbos that far foward + the weight of the inner cooler !

So it does not flip over backwards!

We really didn't add much weight up front.. We already had the old intercooler up there, and a radiator... Anyway, the design was to be net 0 up front or as close to it as possible.

Last year we were 49/51, the year we are working towards 50/50
