According to this calculator, it should run a low 14... don't know about all that, but it sounds plausible. I figured those bolt-ons gained it at least 10 whp, so I plugged in 170 horses at 2500 lbs. In reality, I would think those bolt ons would make more than 10 hp, but I didn't want to over do it.

RTI needs to get it on that one. He built his Teg into quite a beast using a Turbo set-up he put together himself.

I haven't seen him around in a little while, although I don't tread in here much.

With a good size turbo, and a well thought out setup the car can definitely easily make 250 whp and should move pretty well without going crazy with the money. I'm partial to nitrous these days, the hp and tq from a 75 shot on that little guy and it'll be one fun *** car. As far as how it looks, I like it, all except that floor, I'd drive it. I'm just giving my honest opinion.
