I like seeing the HP/TRQ on the same chart - FP doesn't post bogus #'s...

Brent-I wanna be around when you attempt to lay down so much power at anything under 80mph and 4th gear! Should make for some fun video...

The car is undergoing a major exterior transformation right now. But as of about 3 weeks ago, she looked something like the below.
Currently the wing is coming off, and a lot of Carbon Fiber is planned but the graphics on the sides will stay.

We are using the methanol kit as a safety device, not for power. So Sharif's tunes are done without the methanol, and without pulling fuel. Then the meth kit is turned on. I could be wrong with this, but out original plan was NOT to use the methanol to add power, only to cool the intake charge and provide a little extra octane to reduce chances of detonation.

It should be interesting that is for sure... I plan on having a little bit of camber pulled and have the front toed in more to help plant the car a bit more under hard acceleration. Without the wing now... I am definitely concerned with handeling and making sure the car stays firmly planted.

I'd love to ride shotgun in either BamBam's or Nitrous's car just so I could do this to anyone who decides to run...

He did Joe's car using his Meth kit for power and he got some INSANE power increases. Like 100+whp if I remember correctly.
I am sure it will be pretty impressive when he is done with the tune on your car.

I've had the privilege of seeing your car in person last May - a true work of art, visually and mechanically. Kudos for sticking through thick and thin to get to this point. You have definitely got to be more than a little crazy though!
