Yep he's awesome ... his stealth is insane. I can't wait to see what he can do with the big single.

I work for him and he is just waiting for his hotside which has been lost during transit. He decided to change the hotside after all for better spool up. His latest issue was the cylinder head bubbling up(expanding) and creating some extra pressure causing the coolant to overflow.

He also had to do a twin fuel pump recently with bigger rails, his old fuel setup couldn't handle it . He is pouring massive amounts of methanol(4 big nozzles, the biggest) on his tune.

Anyway, I will be filming and taking pictures on his pass on October, he plans to attend the pass time TV show that will last 3 days in Tucson.

His car is beyond sick, it is indeed the quickest street car in Tucson with the old set up, now with his new set up he must be putting around 800-900whp or so(old dyno numbers were 625whp mustang to all 4).

In all seriousness I always said that Trevor's skills are simply admirable, his car own by him, tune by him puts big name shops on a real challenge. He does all his work on his home garage and has no sponsorship..talking about achievement?

My guess is that he will pulverize the previous 10.3 sec record he has in Tucson and go deep into the 9s and around 150s. These are absolutely untouchable numbers for Tucson dragstrip. You got to admire this guy, running methanol for 7 years now on a total street set up...

The other only real car I have seen in AZ is Ryan's woon Supra which has ran high 8s to low 9s here in Tucson but his car is always brough to the track in a trailer and has special tires and only runs once or twice. Trevors will bring his car to the track, do a few pases and drive it home and to work the next day..does it make a difference? off course it does, his car is fully street driven. .

Let me know your name and I will tell him. Oh, I forgot, I think he has a set of brand new injectors and some other $hit for sale, I will let you know tomorrow.

Carlos

Yep it should be pretty badass, for sure. Can't wait to see it.

He probable knows me from 3Si, I posted about the run there too ... but if you want to mention something that'd be cool. My name's Ryan.
