Great choice in wheels as well, are those the the new C90's or the C20's.

Thank you . I have wrestled with each detail to make these selections . The wheels are C20's . 19 in brushed .

Indeed very nice.

Have you ran for top speed or acceleration? Just curious with all that went into this Turbo.

Nope . I've watched the Texas Mile clips and even though the idea of entering a formal driving competition sounds like a lot of fun .. it wasn't my original idea with this car . I simply set out to create something special . Something unique . Something that I could feel like my input and time went into it .

What started out as a hobby turned into art .
But as much as i love the car driving 200 MPH or so isn't what I wanted from it . I can respect that others might though.
