Currently I am running 10 pounds of boost max (10:5.1 compression - yikes!!!) with no problems. I want to go up to 15 pounds but my engine would need some actual work to make it happen or "boom".

The below picture was taken right before a show hence the graphics but now the car is stealth black with no decals whatsoever.

Thumbs up AWESOME!

Incredible setup. Thanks for sharing. What about performance numbers? 0-60, 0-100?!, handling?

Do you race this beast?

What brand of brakes do you have? I'm getting tired of the mushy stock feeling. Did this improve with your changes?

Inquiring minds want to know!

Default Does it fly?

Is this still considered a car?

Looking for wings next, I suppose?
