Yeah the car is featured on a honda website im on of all things lol. The fabricators are a pretty well known company in the honda world, but goes to show that its just about speed when your into cars.

Its not theoretically 4 wastegates, they are going to move the placement of the wastegates to get the best boost control. If the boost control is better closer to the turbo, then the 2 gates will go there, if its closer to the headers, then the 2 will go there.

Yes its some guy that alread had a 7 sec vette, and now hes doing this. By far the sickest fabrication ive ever seen on a car and I thought I would share more on it.

Here is a little more info on the car. http://www.corvettemajor.com/index.php

And a little video of the car before the renovations of what you see.

I like the fabrication and especially the attention to detail of the engine bay but am curious why they went rear mount? Just doesn't make sense to me at this point?

because they could I guess. Definitely a very bad *** rear mount setup. I love how they setup the turbo intakes.

That has to be the most overly-complicated rear mount system I've ever seen! Workmanship and welding is beautiful though. Definite A+ on attention to detail and fab skills!

considering they are twin 4788's im thinking hes gonna be shooting for the 2500hp range.

It should be done rather soon, last I heard they were switching to some smaller rules to run in the nopi class. But since nopi stopped their events, not sure what has taken place.
