This friday we will be getting new drag times as it is very hot out and friday will be cool. We will also post 60-130 numbers. I have some videos of our last drag racing at www.youtube.com/vividracing

Wow! This car is really amazing! The works you have done on it work very well, it looks beautiful. It seems as if you have thought a lot about doing the necessary mods to strengthen up and balance the car for the extra power; suspension, brakes, balancing the downforce and increasing it etc.
I see you have a 800 HP performance kit. Have you measured it too see how many HP the engine actually delivers?
Your not by any chance thinking of selling it?

The car in the video is the same one, just with a different GT2 wing. I added the Vorsteiner VRT wing to complete the kit. The last version of mods the car made 645awhp on our Mustang Dyno. We are going to redyno it tomorrow morning. I hope to see 700awhp.
Yes I would sell it for the right price. Contact me if interested.

I noticed you used external wastegates. May I ask why you chose to use externals instead of the internal one that come with the tial alpha series? I am thinking of trying the gt30 71s.
Also I guess the engine has stock rods, heads, cams? Will it last with all that power?

Thanks Shawminator!
GT - We dont use the Alpha Turbos. We use the real Garrett GT3076rs turbochargers. External wastegates are far superior compared to internal wastgates when it comes to making torque. The internal gate flap opens right in front of the turbine wheel. I suggest upgrading your stock VTG to modified ones. We can also replicate this kit. These engines have been proven to last with this power time and time again. No issues here.

thanks, I had the upgraded gt2 vtgs and was looking for sth better.. Am hoping the G30 71s will give 50-100 hp more with similar response and lag and no issues with egts.
was there any reason you did not chose the stainless steel alpha housings?

I appreciate that you recognize that :) I am more happy to answer tech questions or questions about my car anyways. I am here for new relationships.
Well...apparently you know how to "trick" us.
I appreciate that you posted the nice photos (beautiful car btw) and I understand that you have a business with beautiful cars but try to keep everything at a non-commercial level, we would really appreciate it.
Thank you.

I LOVE the side skirts! A friend of mine calls this "art and science." And the flat blue totally rocks!
Not so wild about the front bumper though (sorry).
Questions:
what is weight
what is 0-60, etc?
(sorry to be a little asertive here, but) why title the post/package 800HP unless you make at least close to that? Porsche communities expect more conservative numbers...

Just hit the dyno today. Did 3 runs. First one the intercooler hose popped off and it made 600awhp. 2nd run did 697awhp. 3rd and final run did 756awhp. We are running this on a Mustang ALL WHEEL DRIVE Dyno with a parasitic multiplier of 1.0. Temp was 82F and we were running a max of 1.5bar on 109octane. You can see the screen shot showing the power... Drag times and 60-130 times coming on Friday night, posting saturday. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3nAVhKm_TKw The dyno plot shows a dotted line and solid line. The dotted line is our runs before the new 3inch Ypipe, Agency Power Throttle Body/Plenum Upgrade, and Cold Air Intake System. You can see that once the turbos kicked in at 3600rpm, the car pulled MUCH stronger to redline with the new setup. Questions, comments, let me know.
