Default Car update!

Well it has been a long time but it is getting real close! All the fuel lines are done, rear end is 99% done,and 2 more NOS lines. Oh and the Accel GEN7 wires are next! I hope this month! I still need to rewire the hole car and install the carpet seats and panels. I am hoping for 600hp on turbos and another 200hp with the NOS!The 55lb injectors are now the weak link,but will work with the power. We will see.......

well they are as close to Incon specs as I could get still ball bearing,water and oil! But just one size bigger as that was all I could get the inside needed to be "cut out" to clear the fins! I gave them the exhaust housings and they sent back the rest all but together was $2400

The only other problem is the intercoolers I need to switch to one big *** front mount but don't want to remove the support and foam! Well I can live with 600hp one turbos!

Yes 37R was the one just a bigger chra! Was told it is only good for another 30hp at best.
Car has no a/c,air bags,seats are 2 sparco's, no wires,ect....
And with the new 3"stainless exhaust w/down tubes we saved at least 25lb. I weighted one of the cast down tubes at 7lb!

I am hoping to be at thunder shootout just for fun! As well as Autorama.
