mjedens pics and vid (no dial up)
Mike brought his car by the shop last night to show us everything he has had done. I took some pics of his new custom exhaust and the whole setup in general. He said he has no capabilities to do any of this so he told me to go ahead and post them up.
I have a very short video but you cant tell much. All I can say is when the car hits you know it, everyone around you knows it and you are usually facing a different direction than when you started. It is flat out scary . . .just in low boost (17psi).
Oh yeah that buzz noise you hear is the fuel pump. Its the over powers the blow off valve noise when driving, just to give you an idea of the loudness.

Ok I just watched the video again . . .I know its not much but thats what the car does in every situation. I have another video but it looks the same. It does that same thing on the surface roads and interstate. In 5th gear easing into the throttle it snaps just like in the above video.

Traction? Are you kidding me? Those tires look very small for that amount of power.
Thanks for sharing. That car is freaking ridiculous! SGP rules!

of course the pump is gonna be loud, there's no insulation between the metal and the bottom of the car where the fuel tank used to be! ha!
I thought I saw no tank when i saw the two ports where you'd access the sender and stuff. CRAZY~!!!!!
Interesting exhaust work.....very nice.....too bad it's rusting
love the exhaust cutouts....excellent!

Let me tell you guys something, after inspecting that car myself last night, and then rollin with him on the interstate... THAT CAR IS INSANE!!!!!
The fuel pump is so freakin loud it is crazy.
Definitely a BEAST...
My best explanation is just rollin down the interstate and when he punched it seeing the plume of smoke, from the rear tires.

If I recall they didn't even boost past 23psi or spray the NOS. The car is set up to go to 30psi. I can't remember what shot of NOS it has.
