Agree! And having an RS to start with helps even more (aluminum roof and trunk lid, manual mirrors and windows, no rear wiper, no sound padding, abs, etc...all from the factory)

Car looks and sounds great Em

Very true, it's just crazy that once I pull my ACD stuff out your car will still be 200lbs+ lighter than mine, haha. But I have an MR too, so power everything, both firewall pads, OEM brake booster, ABS, etc...So thats a good bit of weight right there...You running an oil cooler on the RS?

i.e. sound deadening, trunk lining, cleaning up wiring etc. ?

It was on hoosier drag radials. Hopefully driving them on the street helped to soften them up so it can hook on the dyno.

I have another set of M&H's here for her Emery!

Thanks for all your support, I really like working with you guys and appreciate you all a lot. I don't know how many of our engines you've used at this point but it's a lot of them. I'd like to point out you've yet to have a single failure or issue, correct? Here's yet another car you've put together, ran for limited minutes and slapped on the dyno and belted out over 700 whp! Awesome work.

I can't wait to see round two on the dyno!

So... great job on the car.

DB... what is the diameter of the master cylinder this car is using? It's hard to jump on a "kit" that doesn't list any specs of the product?

Nope, Not one failure.

We are all very happy to have you guys as part of the team too! Its crazy what can happen when things are done right.

I looked at the odometer after the last pull and it was at 9 miles. So 0-700+ whp in 9 miles. Not a bad day!

Looks like your front is toe-ing in during the pull

somebody needs some Robi sphericals and PSRS on the FLCA.

The car looks great. that's some serious horsepower on a MD.

Wow, such a clean and light car. I wish to have one sometime in the future. Kinda sad that my fully gutted RSTI isn't as light.

I agree 100% The Perrin parts are being overnighted for tomorrow.


Thanks for pointing that out to me.
