Sounds like a nice guy, but going to the road course in that would be borderline dangerous if he's only an occasional racer lol

I've seen and heard this car in person before on a few occassions. It's freakin' stout to say the least. I think he's running an ECS blower which are certainly capable of making over 1K whp (I also believe he's got a built LSX long block if I remember correctly).

I saw the video. It's a built LSX block with an ECS blower and meth injection, which makes more sense. I don't know why they arent trumpeting the mods on that, because it sounds like a hell of a motor build. More concerned with the body kit/wheels I guess lol.

Sure, but the body kit has a fraction of the money of that build. That motor is easily 30-40k of work I bet.

Not quite Johnny Tran money under the hood, but close.

Off to pick up my oft-painted car from the body shop... so I can drop it at Hills next week.

The front bumper has been painted so many times they actually had to sand it down completely before painting this time or risk cracking (lol)

How many times have you had it painted?

MightyBobo · 10-09-2014, 08:54 PM

And do you just have a tab at Hills? Because it sure seems to find its way back there...

This would be the fourth time. They had to completely sand down the front bumper to prevent the paint from cracking because there were too many coats of paint.

Tab? Ahahaha don't I wish. This is just to finish up the E85 tune though.
