It has a custom-fabricated air box. Almost all of the piping is custom fabricated. The car was built at Apex'i and XS Engineering. I kept in contact with SparcoEvo during the build. I am dying to get that hood.... No CF is better than that.

They make that hood! http://allamericanracers.com/merch/aftermarket.html

Cost you a pretty penny though!
I want a air box like that, any ideas?

I have been in contact with Justin Gurney about the hood - it's just a matter of good weather and my tax return at this point...

Are you sure? Really sure? Have you raced it?

I guess there will always be haters, but I'm just curious (and amused)......as it seems like there are a lot of stories about this car or that car out there, but they always seem to be accompanied by a host of problems. The facts always seem to go missing from threads like these. If I recall, there has never been a whp figure posted about this car or a story about it's on track performance against other EVOs on the same track on the same day. But, if it is really all show, please tell us what "bigger *****" means and don't just give a whp figure, as dyno queens are just that.

Honestly, I like the car the way it is minus the wing. I'm just saying, with all the looks they should have invested more in the performance possiably if they are looking to track it at all. Again I like it the way it is because it is not over done.

I'm no hater, I love the car! I think it is the best car done yet. (minus the wing)
