I really think alot of people dont realize how much it cost to do a build like this. I really wish the motor had not gone originally and do the build up at a little slower pace but it is what it is.

Probably because they're in SO deep before it's even done that they need to re-coop some of the invested cash once finished.....especially in times like we are in now

A little teaser of what the wheel will look like for the car and what I hope to bring out for the Evo community. Let me know what you think of the style.

Well I really dont care to much about peak power, Im really just looking to run in the 9's and enjoy doing it. I would love for 8's but its gonna take alot of work and tuning and suspension work to get there. 2009 season I think will just be for dialing in the car and trying to get it in the 9's

damn that is a pretty massive turbo...as long as u have a decent suspension setup and the car can hook up decent with the power u will be putting down 8s shouldn't really be a problem...good luck with the rest of the build...looking forward to the finished results...
