The car was built as a daily driver, full interior, with stereo, AC, and PS using a plan for E-85 and running 9's. I am not finished with the car and would like to start a trend with the power increases and track times. This way I can see how the car progresses. The car has been a 6 month project for me. I am just a normal guy that works out of his garage and does all my own work besides machining. I would like to thank my wife for understanding my hobbies, also Chris (RYU) and danameisoj (Orlando) for their support!

VD 471hp/373tq @ 20#'s

This is the lowest power the car will make and boost will be going up on the 93 oct. then the switch to E-85 in the next few weeks for final tuning.

 

not bad for 20psi

No dyno graph can do this car justice on the amazing throttle response this car has off of boost. I can't wait to turn up the wick.

 

its going to be beasting on E85

 

Awesome!!! This car is going to rip! Sounded good leaving last night too, great family car lol.

So, there is a white 8, black 8, silver 9 and grey 9.... Sounds like Chris is putting a team together lol

 

nice job ryu

 

were putting together a small arsenal of fast street cars!
congrats to Jetfixerguy for the long hard work to finally start paying off. there will only be more great things to come.

 

Thanks local, and yes we are putting together a small army.

 

lol git r dun!

 

Nice setup!

 

Nice!

 

Good job Ryu!

 

Thank you guys. The car has now been switched over to E85 and at a very conservative tune @ 25# is making 540 but we are chasing a phantom knock. We did have a taste of near 600 few nights back and the car ripped but had to back down till i can find some time to take care of the phantom knock.

 

Nice power for 20#s. I'm sure that thing is a blast.

 

thanks guys
