Mana,

You better get a full roll cage and a HANS device for that rocket sled...you should do the same for the Porsche. I'm not talking about when you drive'm on the track, you need that stuff for the street...don't forget your helmet while you're at it!


Cleve


P.S. Nice Moton Clubsports

Here are a few quick pics I took after about a 30 minute cruise. It was about to rain and I needed to get these taken quickly. I post up some better pics in a few days.

Now Brutha..... That is SICK !!!!! One mean looking machine....

Your back in the saddle again... Congrats....

Nice clean looking work on the engine.......

Gary, Now tell me ... are you trying to stir the pot??

Sharky, Heffner installed am AEM Engine management system that gives me some traction control. 1st and 2nd have limited boost ... the nuts don't really start swinging until 3d gear. It is actually veeery smoth.

Does it still feel somewhat as easy to drive from when it was stock?

Gary, I heard Shank say that his Viper is faster and looks a lot better!

Much louder than stock, but still very smooth.

Out of curiosity what's the cost of a 1000 hp TT conversion for the Viper?
