^ I've seen most of this guy's vids/builds and holy ****! My co-worker told me that he started small and last he knew, he was just doing average builds, but in the past couple of years he's just been doing these crazy insane builds..

His 5.4L TT Code Red build was unREAL!!! Tore it apart after 1,000 pulls and there was next to ZERO wear on the engine and even after 36psi!!!

Un... *******......real!!!!

-=EDIT=-

This Code Red build.. Definitely worth the watch!

that's actually not THAT bad... considering what you get for the money, and comparable to other builds that have similar power (underground lambo's etc).

would you rather have an underground car, or a nelson engine car?

How many people drive these cars around? I've seen videos from Nelson Racing, but never any customer videos.

The 2nd gen (F-Bomb) they used in the fast and furious movie was driven from L.A. to Rosamond (Willow Springs) with the A/C on and back (90miles one way). When he got there everyone checked everything and the temp was actually a little low!

Apparently the guy claims to drive it quite alot, the build was only a few months old at the time and it had over 16k miles on the clock so it's believable.

Yeah, I follow them on Youtube. Their vids are mostly great and and as you said, if they build a engine, it LOOKS astonishing (and screams).

UGR doesn't build engines though, two totally different routes to go. I would take a Nelson engine over a UGR one any day, but a UGR Lamborghini is at the top of my

list. Nelson just needs to start making a 6-speed and AWD system that can handle their 2000+hp cars!
