they are manley turbo tuff rods, so they will handle anything you can throw at them. IMO manley and pauter are as good as it gets.

I've seen a couple cars make well over 600whp with them. I'm almost positive Geoff is running them in his civic which is over 700whp. So yeah...I think they'll hold

I dont see how you could ever spend that much on a Honda, it would be a challenge. Now 50 including the price of the car I could see, but not 60.

Is that drivetrain? or is body and interior parts included? I tend to only think power, not looks. Id like to see the list of parts that cost that much. It must be the best of the best, and half of it custom. Sound like itll pull pretty good.

custom intake mani, headwork, turbo, manifold, dp, etc. custom brake setup, shaved firewall, etc, getting an 8 point cage put in, traction bars, etc. the interior is still up in the air, im putting most of the interior back in and what i cant get in gets replaced with carbon fiber ... it also helps that im sponsored.

obviously you have a lot of extra money but how will it feel to see cars with less than half of that amount put into them outrun you while looking equally stylish!

Will is simply making a car that is well rounded in every aspect of the sport with the best parts.

What Will is doing is cooler then those guys who dump 60k into molding bodykits and custom ricer tail lights. or spend uber-cash on authentic JDM **** just cause or pay some ******* to make some crazy fiberglass skull inside a speaker box. I mean really, at least Will's car is going to haul ***.
