No its not the bumble beast has the 2.3 just like it though but a lot faster. JMS did tune and fix the car now it performs, safe, and daily driver now. Before it was a mess the set up was horrible ran horrible and was not safe. Not its totally different car. I knew what I was getting myself into just wanted EVO that had the 2.3. Now running 42psi and soon I will see what it can do on the strip. Hopefully before I leave to deploy.

Yeah bought it from a guy named rob he had the car running hard for sure. But it need some reviving well actually a lot. The car is running better then ever before thanks to JMS again. Went to JMS to get car ready for the races but ran into some problems my intercooler had a chunk missing out of it so yep no boost. With JMS's help they got it back up and running again actually running better which was a plus for me. Car is pulling harder then ever crazy fast can't wait to see what it can do on the strip.

I like those wheels man on your car they look sick what they called and where did you get them. Are they racing wheels they look kinda heavy. How much they weight I wouldn't mind looking into those.

The car was built at Abel Racing in Mid-West City, Oklahoma. I can get their number for you if you have any questions for them.
