    Looking forward to this version fairmont. Can't wait to see it done. Are you gonna use a transbrake on this one? You are making some great progress ,that one its flying together pretty quick. BY the way, never thought i'd see someone go out for coffee in the winter in a 7 sec car unreal!!

    i think this china turbo might hit 800+whp thru the th400 wich is incredible at 30% loss to the tire that is 1100flywheel single turbo, budget china... insanity

    needless to say this car has exceeded expectation, i made over 700whp with some spare parts 5.3 i built and a simple as hell air to air setup pumpgas
