Jeremy-

You want to save some weight? Cut the top off that sum b!tch before the roll cage gets installed.

J/K

Seriously though, you're amazing...I can't wait to see your 1/4 times when you get the car fully set up.

I'd say you've cut quite a few from the looks of it. Nice work man. Can't wait to see it and the numbers when it's all back together.

It's not too late! Go park it at walmart and phone in a missing car report. Wipe those prints first.

You could've done the easy stuff first...like test pipes and a light weight exhaust

Are you going to put in plastic windows too?

very cool, but I agree you will have some weight distribution issues especially since the rear wants to break out more.

are you getting traction bars and so forth to help keep you straight?

Also are you taking the oem fuel tank out to replace it with that fuel cell or is that for W/M injection?

yes i am installing a 12 gallon fuel cell all the way in the back, i am throwing in a A1000 aeromotive inline and see how that holds up, then probably buy another one and run true dual fuel systems, i am going to run level 5 axles and the stock diff for a little while, in a year it will probably be swapped out for something else, maybe back half it...

i plan on tuning it to 20 psi and 150 shot under 12 psi, thats the goal in the next couple months, we will see what i have to replace on this journey..


i will see what kinda problems i run into keeping it straight down the track, so far its been nice to me...

i just cant wait to drive it again, its already been three weeks down

**Bye Bye Warranty** j/k

Nice work Jeremy,

The weight will significantly help in what you are trying to accomplish. Is your motor fully built/sleeved? Why only 12psi?

That's nice Jeremy, but do you think the dealership will take it back now once the lease is up?

wow. I can't wait to see it coming back together and done. amazing. BTW - welding is easy, it just takes practice (and the tools) and something to practice on (which it seems you've got down).
