Looks great, except for the Painless Performance wiring products, and fuses. For all the work that's going into it, you'd think you guys would use something like a MoTeC PDM32:

Overpriced and not even worth it. With the painless kit it lives up to its name. Painless is a great way to go. Ill be doing the same next year if i keep my car.

Maybe not to you. Ask AMS how much that blown fuse 'cost' them, when they got DQed at that time attack. I'd bet it was more than $4k.

Anyway, nice car! Looks great AMS.

The car was running today and driving around our lot. Rich took some video and some updated pics. Now she goes on the dyno for tuning and then back to CT to finish her up. Tommy and Hugo along with our guys at the shop have really busted their humps getting this car done this week.

Here are some pics from yesterday and today when the car was started:


Gauges mounted on the steering column... no worries it will all be reworked later


Spaghetti, almost ready!


Water cooler piping


Piping coming out of the Air To water unit...


Finished water cooler pipes


Tommy and Hugo installing the massive throttle body



Almost there!




READY !!!


After the car started Tommy asked all the employees here at AMS to sign the trunk, Matt got the honors to go first.


Chris Nielsen the man responsible for the artwork on the exhaust manifold...


Last but not least, Martin the president of AMS.





STAY TUNED!!! VIDEOS COMING SOON
