Brian, I think other than a higher center of gravity which from the construction looks like they tried to limit. It's all late model suspension and probably abs/traction control from the TT looking at all that wiring they swapped in.

To me that is an interesting side show but a terrible waste of money, time, and engineering skills. Kind of like road racing Semi tractors.
I'm suprised to hear this coming from you evil twin man Some might say the same about us, flayling away on our 20+ year old motors, trying in some cases to extract 300hp(NA) or 500hp(boosted). Perhaps we should all get american v-8's, or Nissan RB26DETTs(good used one is $3500 add couple turbos and your hitting 1000whp!) I don't think it was a waste of time and money to send you a bunch of parts

Besides, what a great advertising project(cause I'm sure it's no fun to drive ) they can write-off for their business, though with their obvious talent, I'll bet their not hurting for work.

Can you tell I haven't had my coffee yet?
