Wow, that is one hell of a conversion! Damn! And do you have any idea what kind of BHP that is putting out? And what did you guys use for rear fenders, because those things stick out baby!

Actually, the engine in this car is an LS6 with a cam. I think that it is beyond 400 rwhp. The car is only a hair slower than the factory GT3R at Homestead and eats all others for lunch.

This is the same car that has been running at Sebring, Homestead and Moroso for the past 24 months. It is also the same car posted in South Florida’s PCA region (Goldcoast) website. The asking price is $28,500, which excludes the HRE wheels, but does include two sets of 18” wheels, one of which are OEM Porsche Hollow Turbo Twists (I believe made by BBS). The car currently has racing graphics that can be removed.

Not that I am in the market, but it would be interesting to know the asking price.

Nice car.

So a dollar per performance comparison would be cool.

Maybe, they will not be the same 400rwhp.

The turbo engine will do nothing till 3500rpm and the V8 is long gone by then. on the track it is even more pronounced since since the boost onset can make trackout out of a turn tricky wereas the V8 power is there all the time.

I am the owner of the car. This is the same car listed on that site and it probably is the same car you saw at Sebring. I ran the car at local tracks (Homestead, Sebring and Moroso) for about 2 years. I am now racing a 996 GT3 Cup, so that's why I'm selling this one.
