Hey pelicanites,

Unfortunately I didnt find much time over winter break to work on the car. Heres a little look into what I've been doing.

Car in its current state:

I'll be mounting the intercoolers (started that today), fabricating the intake plenums and some ducting this MLK weekend.

OMG! This car rocks! Great job Princeton!

any specs?

I demand to know what you do for a living, sir!

Princeton everytime you post pics the car looks better truly a work of art. Make sure to post a sound clip with you get it running.

yes Princeton should be banned for posting P&&^ without a warning ;)

Too bad you have to work in such a small workshop :D

WOW, keep up the great work Princeton!

How are you plumbing the intercoolers?

Yeah how about some history and numbers to go with that pictures. But I really want to know how many trial and error times it took to get the car to sit like that on stands. ;)

Very cool! I like the exits next to the license plate as well.

the only thing i dont like is all the carbon fiber look (needs to be painted) and the wide body (just the rivits)

I love those pipes coming out the back. That is so cool.

Yowza! What a work of art!

Can you spell "horsepower'?????

princeton, am i right in thinking that you wont be running ANY silencers? also, tell us about the garage!

Andy

Very good work! Keep it going!

There is one thing though: I'm very sceptical about placing and choice of air-filters. Those "swamp style" filters are hardly effective when it comes to purification and your position will make them suck heaps of dirt.

It would be much better idea to run turbes up to engine compartment and connect them to filter there, where the can suck clean and cold air. It would be preferable if you can adopt some sort of paper filer, but I guess it will be somewhat cramped there once the intercooler comes into place.

The air filters should be fairly well protected from dirt, water and debris by the plastic fender liners, I'd think.

I too wonder how loud this beast is while running.

That is extremely hot, can we get a couple more update pictures?

I think the filters would be fine if there was somesort of sheild for them, my main concern would be water clogging the filters and stalling the car. That is if you can drive it in the rain... :D

WOW!!!:eek:

I predict that this car will be the subject of a magazine article in Excellence or some other publication......
