About 1/4 mpg but it 0-60 in 1.3 seconds and runs the 1/4 over 160 mph... if you want mileage, buy a prius.

Yea - laughed at that last year when it was made; although, I did accomplish most of my goals and the Killer was on the cover of 5.0, Modular Mustangs, and MM&FF...don't know too many other stangs that can say that...

It is also the fastest 3V on the west coast and one of the 3 in the world - all before the final finish. The new owner will break Vinny's record with it - I'm sure of it. The car is now 3100 lbs and 400 more rwhp and 50º cooler IAT's. I believe the car has an 8.20 in it.

BTW: Car is SOLD

Stupid question; Why does it seem that these monster turbo kits never have air cleaners on them? Are they somehow immune from the effects of dirt?

Because beyond a 1000 hp, the filters are not effective and become a restrictor. What we do is use a thin steel mesh screen over them instead. It keeps all of the major junk out but let's the turbos suck air like no tomorrow. Especially when the car is not going to be driven much more than down the racetrack. If the car were a daily driver, then it would have filters on it for sure.
