Nice work. Did you build the 'rail as well? If so, where'd you get the plans/basics? I'm itching to build a 'rail, and this makes me want to do it all the more.

Ok... GT40... LOL

I was thinking man a GT42 is a BIG turbo for this stock motor, but a GT40... that seems more in line with what you were explaining.

Keep it up and I want to see pictures/ videos of that beast in action on the dunes!
