Lordy Lordy Lordy and the man hasn`t even turned 40. WTF. I am a bit worried since we are calling this newest build a street car with turbos. All things considered the track is only like 7 miles from your house and if I remember correctly your last turbo build which was like a 3yr project had less than 7miles on it before it was junk. So all things considered you will run out of time or the milage maybe to far for this new motor to last. So I guess I got some time to wait for this one to make it to the track..

And be honest here Chad. I know you loved your turbo car right up to the point you made that 15th career full pass in it and it went pop. LMAO...

Get a huffer Chad keep the car a street car. No fun dumping a ton of money into something living a 1/4mile at a time going boom every few passes. I just wish Lt.Dan would have left the huffer on his car. He seems to be following the course of all the other turbo cars.

I still may put mine on the street Either way it's forced induction and will kill a motor fast. Pretty sure my motor, Brian's or Dan's would have had the same carnage with a blower..... Oh and my car made it almost 30 passes
