Dude, that thing is going to be killer... There's one out here that has a V* motor and a 50 or 75 shot. And he runs low 12's or high 11's(should have been last year). But when he went down the track he couldnt even hook up on the track and all most hit the wall.

With drag slicks on it(hahaha).

HAHAHAHA HOLY CRAP! That's some power. What pisses me off is they spend about $200 or something rediculously cheap for a single cam and that gives them like 50 hp upgrades!

Im so pumped for him scoot --- by the way, the tires he got were Toyo T1s's , for those who were wondering. The car is going to be...just..scary..

When is he actually going to start the swap --- did you guys start this weekend?
Keep my updated --- I'm looking forward to going home next weekend...sorry I didnt go home with you guys this weekend --- It is painful to see my GSR and not be able to drive it bc of the fcking wheel.

Well he put it in the car this weekend, all he's got to do is get an exhaust and hook it up, and it should be ready, but that's just a guess

I was at his house this weekend --- he has all of the wiring to do...as well as the gauge cluster...its coming along quickly. He is making all of his own harnesses and such, so its a big job --- I beleive he is shooting for the end of March, is that right Scott?

Soon, like I said he needs the radiator, headers, and finish the wiring and he should be ready to go. Give 'em another month, you know how slow he works.

this car is nuts. i hope he has plans for better brakes too.

good luck with those tires, i doubt it will be long before he wants something else to put down all that power.
