i agree with you on the rice but it would look pretty cool and i will be able to back it up once the swaps done low 10's/ high 9's is fast around here most kids around here are 14-13 secs some 12 sec cars all rice burners except for my friends twin turbo cobra 700+hp. i wanna be the fastest car in the area which isnt hard to do once the swap is done.

I'm running a Tig Vision removable chute mount, Simpson chute, and Chassis Engineering release kit.
