Well... The body and the Turbo's are. Its hard to race on someone else's build, so the whole car was completely gone through and redone.

440 LSX, Solid motor mounts (lowered drivetrain .750" also), HP Performance Custom Turbo Kit (T4 Flanges, 3" downpipes), trans, 35 spline axles and new center section, QA1 shocks, Aerospace/Strange race brakes, complete brake lines (hard lines and flexible braided), manual brake master cyl., new FAST XFI/XIM (replaced BS3), complete electrical system wiring using factory ignition switch and headlight switch, complete new fuel system, A2W intercooler/water box/Meziere inline pump/Polished Aluminum V-band Tubing (no silicone connectors!).

I have some pics myself I'll see if someone at work can host them. :)

Thanks, it took many late nights and a few long days to get her where she's at now. Those black fittings can come from Jegs or Aeromotive.

That car is Beautiful...

You can also get the black fittings from Summit, they have them in their own brand for a little bit cheaper than the name brands.
