AND been "mechanically done" for a year. That car could have been towed to every VQ tunner in the nation in that time

How many tuners do you know have tuned a whipple 370z? Hint there are about 3-4 and of those 2 didn’t feel comfortable tuning the car, 1 didn’t want to push the car, and the last one is working on the car now and has done as much as he can remotely and wants to be onsite to safely push the car.

Multiple shops, vendors have all worked on this car. Right now the car is having a new starter ring being installed on his flex plate because the screws backed out of his last one. Everything is being double and triple checked, balanced and verified by a transmission shop. Once done it’s reinstalled. New smaller pulleys are being made for his setup and more boost. His low compression motor wants more boost so a smaller pulley needs to be made for the street. The 3.5” was only making 12psi of boost and we want it in the 15-16psi range for the street. He already has a 2.8” pulley that’s been made for big boost but is too violent for the street... every effort is being made to make sure this car is 100% safe and reliable.
