Looks cool. Now please get that car to the track and put some real numbers down. I would love to know what it traps at. That is the real test of how much power its putting down.

seen it in person many times, bad *** car!
The body work is clean, especially on the fender flares.. for Fox Marketing always doing great work.
I got to see some of his other cars when I was up in York, PA working on the IS-C and they are just as amazing as this one!

There is no tune on this car, it runs perfect, no check engine light and air fuel is perfect too. No meth kit, bone stock motor, trans, etc. I have 12,800 miles on the car now and runs like a dream. Wanna race..hahaha??

It makes total sense from an engineering standpoint to do a rear mounted turbo kit. First of all, you can't put two good sized turbo's under that hood. The benefit is to keep all the heat out of the mounter and there is ZERO lag at all. Once you start the car, the exhaust system gets the pressure. If you have no leaks and water test it as they did out the gate, what issue would you have right? That is doing it right. Now, I'm fully boosted by 2200RPM's making 6psi which is outstanding. I have had over 50 different turbocharged cars so I am hard to impress. Most of the turbo cars I have driven come in somewhere in the mid to upper 3k range on the RPM curve. Once the car gets over 60MPH it shirts smooth but firm and is OUT! 1st and 2nd gear are not impressive but from there out forget out it. I had the car 177MPH in 6th gear going over a mile long bridge with some wind...I decided to pull out of it to live another day.

I had dyno runs up last year before I took it to SEMA. It put down 574hp@6psi on the Mustang Dyno in Houston. Video at the link below, sounds like a fighter jet!!

Im going to say that there is NO M3 in the world that looks better then the IS. That paint looks so great on the car that you should be able to get that color from factory.
I wanna have kids with this car....
