Nice choice of parts for this build...if it's been asked, what are you goals for this car?

power goals are 550 on 93 and 750 on e85. I would like to run 10's at the track nothing to serious and take the car to Sebring(my home town) and ride around the track a few times.

Thats about it.

Hmm that's quite a bit more power on E-85 you have planned. Corn makes a big difference huh lol. Are they going to retune you if necessary without charge since you're changing some of your mods or is a retune unnecessary with the additions you are making?

Hey JTEVO2932 what mods do you have done to your car? For my first setup I plan on having similar power goals.

I've got a good idea, just want to make sure I've got everything covered.

a retune will be needed once I make a few changes..right now the car is not holding boost much past 30lbs , wastegate spring is to soft and crankcase pressure needs to be relieved as well.
I am not sure about my bov set up either.

im at 670hp right now so im not to far off of my goals for this build

I've just read your whole Build Thread, and I have to say, Pretty impressive. Are you planning to give the exterior of the car some "blue spots", so it matches perfectly with the engine?

Nice car
