same, thanks for sharing. Interested to see how much the stock motor can handle... 605 hp that's already pushing it you think?

Thanks everyone. Right now this is a custom setup that we are considering releasing. But like the second quote suggests, we should do full testing before we decide to sell it. Most other companies don't.

So far the car has been running almost a month and I drive it back and forth to work everyday. It is a pleasure to drive, you wouldn't even know the beast that it is. It really is one of the coolest projects I've ever worked on and I've been doing this for a pretty long time.

Yes very safe! That is what we set out to build. Anyone can build a fast one trick pony. We are trying to build our version of a Mustang Supercar without Supercar pricing. A car that might, in our wildest dreams come straight from Ford. If Ford released a car like this it would be good at everything so we want to maintain that usability while being able to triple the power.

I am definately curious about more info on this build, I would love to go the Turbo or TT route in the future.

The way you guys packed the turbos under the hood looks sexy as hell.
