Thats the setup COBB would like to put in the car. THey have not done it yet. At sema it was simply a shell. When they do get that thing dialed in we will deffinetely have our work cut out for us.

Ah boo hiss, I was about to say, with 3 liters of displacement I can see twins working, especially with the boxer engine arrangement, running a single turbine just seems like your using too much header between the exhaust ports and the turbo, which probably lwould cause a loss in the tempreature and velocity of the exhaust gasses, no?

For us eric, just make sure whatever the hell they put in it, you mop that thing right off the track !!!!!!!!

Yeah! That splitter wont rub!

Looks like a nice show car to me. We'll see how nice it looks on the track.

EVO owners dont fret, AMS will keep the EVO up front.

Martin, maybe a flat bottom is next?

How about a sprint car wing on the roof, carbon of course!

No question TA in 2007 will be competative.

Its hard to get to the top, its harder to stay there. But for some reason I think AMS will make it look ez.

I just saw P & L Motorsports' time attack STI that they're just starting to build a few hours ago. Theyre basically doing the exact same thing as you guys--stripping it down, acid dipping the chassis, seam welding everything. They said they want you guys to have a little more competition. Theyre shooting for a 600 hp 2200 lb time attack car. Hopefully well see AMS put their car to shame in a few months.
