Still not even fully tuned only hitting 25-26 lbs. Chet is shooting for 30. Car still pulls super hard. It's almost time for storage as snow will be here snow. Yes ik there more fun in winter but it's not worth the salt damage and my County is salt happy.

I've got ohlins coils, hotchkis rsb/fsb and endlinks, whiteline front roll kit, chet rickerman custom made rear lower control arms, and a radium surge tank kit on its way. Gonna be an early Christmas next week

A couple videos off my note 5. Not the best quality buts is something till I get a go pro

Car is now in storage and slowly being ripped apart

I had asked Chet for what he thought the car was making for power and around 26ish lbs his virtual dyno was showing 610 hp and 489 trq. He has since toned it down. Not sure how true vd's are but it was never his intention to have those high of trq numbers even tho he did say they were in the upper rpm range. If he pushed it to 30 lbs the car would be over 700 hp so that's no longer part of the plan Which makes me think more and more about doing a motor build. Any ways tho a pic of the beautiful ohlins which were very easy to assemble. There almost to nice to put on the car. Would really be a nice piece of art for around the house

Don't install those with the standard 10k/7k springs rates. Car is gonna push. Need to get a 10k spring on the rear.

Might as well upgrade spring rates before you install.

I upgraded to 10k in the rear. Eibach 0800.250.0550

approx $125 for the pair.

Yes didn't realize swapping springs was gonna be a cheap fix. I will do it before installing them for sure. Do u recommend eibach over swift? (Which retail for about $99 a spring) Will revalving be something i need to look into? I'm guessing not
