My car is the Silver turbo on the Dyno...we lost one fuel pump and it contaminated the entire fuel system....so we had to patch and make things work in the short time...We where only able to get 857rwhp at 5800RPM's before the car started running out of fuel pump (with the borrowed pump-Its hard to find a 1400hp pump on a Friday night) and this was off the waistgate springs, which where at 1.4bar (I never had a chance to turn on the boost controller). This meant I had to Shift early but it still worked out well =). The new fuel system should be in by the weekend and I am planning on laying down 1100-1120rwhp in Kill mode...
CEC had a great setup and he launched on everyone out of the hole like a shot through a gun!

Its a full street car and can be used at the track. GMG did the full suspension on the car with all GT3rsr heims, bushings, etc etc. The trans got a serious upgrade and I threw in a 50/80 diff. As far as the engine, It involved several people....I just placed an order on a billet custom block that will be the replacement engine when this one goes... that all I like to disclose on a public forum...we also did alot of aerodynamic work....you can PM me for the details...
