They are a sponsor of the car and we have their direct port system installed. Each cylinder has a separate fuel and nitrous nozzle plumbed into the underside of the intake runners.

The car has taken a while to start coming together. Mostly due to the first turbo/engine sponsor that I was involved with. They set me back almost 2 years with this build. The focus of the build shifted from being one of the first high HP Evo Xs to going after the highest HP Evo X. The goal is to get up to, pass or get to as close as possible to 1000whp. We are just not sure what the block can handle. The main focus of the car will be marketing and Magazines. It will definitely be pushed to its limits when I have some down time. No professional track time though. At least not at this point.
Another engine shot was asked for.... Here you go
I also included a shot of the trunk. Its the only part that has not been dressed up yet. you can see the 2 NX Tanks, The methanol tank in the middle fillable from the inside armrest when the plastics are in and finally the AMSOIL Dominator 10w30 racing oil available at www.bestsynthetics.net The trailer pics were of us leaving the AMSOIL Convention in Duluth MN at the Amsoil Arena.

After a crazy couple weeks of being on the road with the X I am back home in the Philly, PA area. Any local guys want to start up some meets or already attend ones with some good turn outs?

hopefully in the next 2 weeks. I have to pull the fuel pump out. 3 on the studs snapped. I am going to make new studs for it. After that it just comes down to the tuners availability.

If any of the local guys are interested. There is a car show in Roebling, NJ tomorrow. I will be bringing the Evo there. I'll be in the Amsoil Booth if you would like to come out. Hope to see you there.
