If the guys on the vid would not have been such retards, they did not "rice" the hell out of the car, and not lie about the HP, than it would have been a pretty nice vette. To bad.

Hopefully you wont get in a brutal street fight and not be able to make the dyno event - But I was thinkin we should meet there on saturday and get some video of the conversation - Then we can post that in Media - since it'll be comedy gold with 1320 gettin red hot on every word out of the owners mouth.

Really, that's nothing.
I rewired my MSD ignition to a flux capacitor. I get 1.21 Gigawatts at 4600 RPMs.
1/4 = 0.00 @ C
60' = 0.00

You hear stuff like that all the time. A local Vette owner told a Supra friend of mine that he has ran 8's with his twin turbo Vette using a 6 speed and currently holds the 6 speed C5 record. My buddy asked if he would bring the car out again to the track and he said no because he accomplished what he wanted and dont want to chance hurting the car. Supposedly he has a timeslip, but no video. Of course I called BS. You cant hold a record and no one knows about it and the only proof is a timeslip that you can get from anywhere..

I bought an LS6 intake for LS1 price from that shop last year. They had no idea what it was and replaced it with an un-ported FAST intake. I went there and told him I will buy it while the dude was asking me why I need an LS1 intake. I paid for it, had it in my position, then told him that it was an LS6 intake and costs much more. 
When I was there, the shop had nothing but trucks and truck parts. They seem to cater to urban lifted truck world. You know the kind that looks like 6" lift monster but breaks down in the trail...

Haha shows the videos of them putting all the vinyl decals and stickers on, but only a few second long shots of the wheels and one of the guage on the dyno runs. Hahahaha. I'm stupider now after watching that poor car get butchered... I'm in shock they didn't put a shopping cart wing on it.

2.16 seconds into the video you can see what is clearly a T3 5 bolt exhaust flange. I don't know about "duel" but there is no way that Twin T3 turbos would make that kind of power
also at 2.19 seconds you can see the Exhust mainfold and to me it looks like an APS manifold with the APS heat shield.
no way the APS kit makes anywhere near that kind of power

I thought that video was made as a joke or something. But no I found another one. I wonder if the owner is that white haired mullet man.

They can't be serious, or if they are, the shop is run by the mentally deficient. I mean ****....
"17085 flywheel horse power,a billet twin Turbo engine, Carbon body panels and lots of guts to be the fastest Corvette ever built as a Street Racer on this planet."
How is it possible to give birth to people like this?
