7 Second Build - Red Demon - Boostin Performance Built & Tuned
Its time to finally post up some details regarding our plans for the Red Demon and the 2014 season. Here are some videos and pictures taken during last year's action, enjoy.
The plan for 2014 is to transform the Red Demon into a consistent 7 second car - not a car that goes 7.99 once. For this, refinement is the key. We don't plan on using some overly complicated new setup, like many people do at this level. A nice clean setup has gotten us this far, so changing our approach isn't going to happen. Devin plans on keeping the H Pattern shifter and FP Super 99 Turbo, but will be running one of our new 2.0L LR High Compression Short Blocks.
-More weight reduction
-tubular front core support
-tubular front subframe
-Curt Brown ceramic wheel bearings all the way around
-Dual fuel rail Magnus IM
-Aeromotive Pro Series Fuel Pump
This is not everything that we will be changing, so check back often for updates. We know we are getting a late start on this build, due to some customer projects taking priority. We also just picked up a GTR, so Devin has been distracted a little bit to say the least.
We also wanted to take the time to thank our sponsors:
-Sheptrans - for a unbreakable dogbox transmission
-ETS - for their 6" Intercooler that allows for nice steady intake temps
-Sparktech - for their Sequential CDI Ignition System that we have been running for 4 years without any issues
-Forced Performance - for pushing the envelope in Turbochager design and performance, and for a potent turbo (Super 99) at a great price
Some new sponsors are on board for this 2014 season:
-Magnus - their cast IM's are second to none and for 2014 ours will be fitted with a dual fuel rail setup
-Comp Clutch - we will be running their triple disc clutch that is already proven in many other applications

That would be extremely fun!! I think we raced 2 or 3 times that year. I love that video to, that was PTE's GoPro on the Demon.
