Car sounds nice but heavily modified and bolt ons are not the same thing.

Damn that is quite the mod list! What seats are you going to run? Any pictures of your car?

Sounds suitably nasty. Any run past clips from outside?
only clip I know of taken of the car from the outside is this one. Start at 6:30 in. |

Balancing keeping the timeless looks while improving upon almost every component (OEM+) to make it what it should have been from the factory performance wise has been my goal. Purchashing essentially every upgradable OEM+ component available has been the long (and fun) build process! |

and what size are the rims compared with stock? best looking rims ive seen on the AMV8
That said I have also kept the stock sport pack 5 spoke wheels for the track (never happens) |
Detomaso, she sounds badass! Sorry if I missed it earlier, but what year V8V? What else besides seats netted you the 200# weight reduction? Was the QS exhaust a big weight savings? Ever dyno it before/after the ECU tune? Does your twin-disk clutch chatter very much? Rated for much more torque than the stocker?
Side-note, do you also have (or had) a Pantera? Hahaa. |

Hahaa. wheels -27.2 lbs battery -42 lbs muffler -27.0 lbs high-flow cats -8 lbs headers -8.25 lbs cargo divider -10 lbs (estimate, only when at the track) VelocityAP clutch and lightweight flywheel -17.5lbs Aston Martin N420 rear diffuser -2.5lbs Air box delete -8lbs Nitron coilovers -11.6lbs Current -162.05lbs Still to do: 2 piece Wilwood rotors -18lbs Cobra Nogaros -50lbs Grand total of 230.05lbs Its a 2006, no dyno for tune alone, Velocity AP custom tuned for half day following all mods. Twin disk does chatter at idle a bit, they bumped idle to 950 to eliminate 95% of it...much more torque, it’s OEM for V12. I grew up working under my dad’s DeTomaso Pantera GTS with him that he bought new in 1973 (74 model year). Car has just under 30,000 original miles and is one of perhaps 50 true GTS’s in the states. It’s the car that got me into cars and the one thing that will be left for me someday. Took the below pictures when visiting them in TN last year. https://cimg6.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.6sp...175dae526.jpeg https://cimg9.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.6sp...519c65555.jpeg https://cimg3.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.6sp...d5115668c.jpeg |
