LOL yes John, gotta keep the wife in line.. Wearing that shirt just makes her remember who is boss.. jk
Ryan, the quality is "OK" I have had to rework 80% of everything to make it perfect. It has been a fun build, and i will probably do 5 or so more and sell them if i get enough free time this next year.
Learning alot for sure though on everything it takes to build a car from the frame up..
Your gunna have to come up for a ride Ryan, It is the stupidest car i have ever built. On the scales with no body on it is 1600ISh pounds.. That with 750hp it is just stupid fast. And with the engine on the rear of the car it hooks unbelievably good. I actually pulled off the direct port nitrous kit because 200 more hp would not be safe at all. the 750 is has now is not safe. Honestly i will back it down to 400 ish hp after the last dyno session and the body is all painted so i wont kill myself or others...

Cool, Jesse!
The mail-order tune you did for our '99 PCM for our BMW E30-LS1 worked perfectly with no issues whatsoever. We're going to be repeat customers ... gotta find the next car

I used a stock relay box from a corvette for that engine block setup. It is small and has a ton of outputs. Just have to do some hacking to make it work. The main harness for all the other stuff is in the driver side fuse block under the steering wheel assembly. I ran 2 just to keep things split up.

Honestly, it just depends on "what you want".
I have 125,000 in one and 85,000 in the other one. Including the 10k paintjob/bodywork.
But of coarse, i could have used alot cheaper parts, cheaper paint materials, stock engines, not 11k rims, 2009 gm oem navigation fully working, no crazy engine, ect... I can make one as cheap as $65-70k if they keep it all pretty basic. However, the cars will still look awsome no matter what engine they have and what color you make it. Then the price would change depending on exact upgrades / mods you would like to do.
ALL used ones are going in the market of around 80-120k being sold. There is alot of labor involved in making them perfect. But i feel confident in knowing i can get it all done for the price above..
However the pricing may seem high, but, the thrill and attention you get is much more than you would with a viper or vette or pretty much any other cars.. There are tons of those around and only 1 gtm.
Last car show i took the gtm to a month ago, people crowded around the gtm and no one even looked at my vipers sitting right next to it. It was definatly an attention getter. Also at that time it wasnt even painted yet. It was just in the green primer...

Yes a power adder could most certainly fit, but i would suggest you being in the car with the power that it has and then you would probably change your mind on wanting a poweradder... Turbos would definatly fit, As would nitrous, or supercharger.
