I looked at it briefly at the supermarket. His whp was somewhere like 379 right? What would it be if it was on Shiv's dyno?

Hey, that's us. . . .

What up fella's?

The pictures in Turbo are a little old (taken last August). The car basically looks the same on the outside except for a car fiber trunk and APR Formula 3 side mirrors. The engine bay and interior have gone through the most changes. We now have a full cage in the car (see picture in thread above), added a bunch other small parts, polished everything, painted the NX bottles and installed a Nitrous Express 75 shot wet kit. On the bottle the car will produce 400+ whp. The car goes back on the dyno in January to see just how much power we can put down. Should be interesting to say the least.

I am planning to be at the BDG meet this Thursday. Hope to see you guys out there.

Cheers,

Ben

I agree. A fully caged 400+ whp wagon with a really clean widebody kit would be SICK!
