wow... this thing is silly-fast!

What are the specs of this turbo-monster??

More pics!

specs?

sc cams, 8-1, stock boost...

not sure .. it has close to 100miles on it.. so haven't made a trip to the dyno

anyone want to make a guess as to how many ponys pushing this thing around?

plenty for a 2480lb car i would say!..

Congrads Mr Muscle...now...do you have time for a spin in the morning ?

Tell us more about the engine? Early 3 liter? You added 98s to? Gotta be close to 300 I would think.

yup...

Actualy its not anything fancy....i ended up having monty build me a late 3.3L stock p's and c's 74.4 by 97?

took some off the heads to make 8-1 and slaped in the cams..

oh...and its got euro exhaust.

feels like 500 when the little 225's are begging for mercy..

Hey I have no clue, could well be 500!

An increase in compression won't yield THAT much more HP at the stock boost levels I'd think.

Awesome car.

Worst pix evar.

ianc

sorry... for some reason the sun keep setting despite my intention to take pictures..

I wasn't serious about the 500. Its way less....
im just going to hazard a guess of "a little over 300"

think thats fair?

In tight leave filled damp washington corrners i was no match!

Nick gave me a ride this morning after a short drive together. This car is very very fast. I suspect it would run away from my 3.6.

Pretty fun! Thanks Nick.

the thing is MELTING my rear bumper! time to break out the hole saw...

Ah! The smells of a new engine....the hotter they are, the hotter they really are. You have a beast there Nick. I suspect with a little more tire and a L/S you'll be have way more fun than any under age "kid" really deserves :D Have fun flying it back to school!

(unless it was me of course;)

Looking forward to the next ride in the Blackbird..

Ruff really did have the right idea.

make a stainless heat shield, and wrap it and the turbo/muffler in silver heat blanket, before you melt the bumper pads and blister all the paint off. if that's a stock muffler and cat, ditch it in favor of a monty or something. the cat bakes the engine as well as the body. nice sleeper.

Did someone say holesaw??
