There is a lot of time and effort invested in that car.
According to Mikael the weight has been reduced by almost 600 lbs.
In addition to the hood/intake, the headlights are removed and replaced by fixed units, the front wings are composite, the front bumper cover is composite, the rear hatch is replaced by a composite hatch and a lexan window is intended to replace the glass, the doors are replaced by composite doors, the dash and centre console are replaced by composite units, the seats are replaced by composite seats, the rest of the interior is out. The intention is to replace the rear wings and the sunroof with composite panels.
The doors are intermittently held in place by a small piece of tape. The doors weigh next to nothing.
The rear spoiler is based on a Viper spoiler, and integrated in the rear hatch there is a ducktail spoiler á la 911 '73 RS.
Anybody able to guess what car is showing in the background of the picture of the hatch ?
The finish is top notch and it is breathtaking to imagine the time and skills put into this car.

Amazing! Ragnar, there is probably a market for a lot of those parts if he'd like to sell some and defray his huge cost for all that....shame to let those molds sit around unused...

Is the engine a stock 5 liter? (I hope so)
anyway, now THATS how its done!! all the venting to the low pressure section of the hood, and ducted nicely up front, and of course, the Phil "like" intake looks awesome and im sure will work amazingly well.
more pics!!!

Awesome! Finally! Now we can see what it does to a stock 5 liter block!
I bet it does REALLY well.
any idea when it might be dyno tested???
I think I am not alone when I say this is the most anticipated mod for the 928, yet, no one has done it. (only 6.5 liter boys)
Thanks,
Mk
