Wow it looks amazing. If you want more people to take a look at your work maybe post just a few in the first post. That'll keep them wanting more

If I had those tools and equipment, I'd be working on my car everyday. Regardless if I had money

I always wondered what happened to your car. I followed the build up for a while on sxoc, and then saw the pictures of the fire. You have built one crazy CA and I'm loving it. Keep up the great work.

Very nice project! what was done to the engine and where is that engine dyno located??

I'm jealous and awestruck.

What did you all do to the CA to make that power? I have a friend who'll definitely want to know so he can mod his and show the haters who have an SR's on the island what's what.
