    Just had a genius idea, I think you could have free gas for life with this car. All you have to do is put a sign in your front yard saying "will make you poo your pants for $100, but in a good way." Then when people show up to investigate you just take them around the block for a $100 bucks? You may need to hose the passenger seat out from time to time. Works out all te better with an open air car. :2thumbs:

    Car is absolutely gorgeous! You should be very proud of it and I'm 150% positive that it will grab attention everywhere you drive.

    I'm not sure if I'd have the guts for a full throttle run in that thing or not!!!

    Does it really matter? I don't think a single person on this site would think twice about doing what they had to do to get the money together to build that animal.

    Re: My Factory Five Turbo 408 Cobra replica build

    I have total $37,000-$38,000 in kit, parts, paint + about 4 years build time. The build took me longer than most because I would build a few weeks then save up money for a few weeks. If you have the money the car could be built by most in about a year. I added Methanol /water injection, it is a AIS kit without the tank, I had my own tank built out of Stainless steel to fit in my trunk. Rodney at ASI fixed me up. ******************** [​IMG]#ad

    Steve Petty tuned my car on the dyno last week and with the Methanol /water injection, bigger 120#/hr injectors and Petty's tuning skills the car made 924rwhp/ 986rwtq with less boost and a very streetable tune. I only had a few gallons on VP109 race gas mixed with 93 octane pump gas so we could not push it any harder but with more race gas it is capable of much more. ************************************************************************************************************************************* ***

    Absolutely beautiful car, great job! I love how clean everything is, even with a complete turbo system and the meth kit. That thing sounds mean as hell on the dyno, enjoy!
