Happy for you Peter. That must have been an incredible first ride. Too bad about the headache.
Where are the intercooler's? Is that what's in the black box before the BOV's?

Peter,

Thanks for hosting me for the past two days! I have to say first that I was blown away with Underground Racing. Kevin and KC are absolutely first class in how they treat their customers and the operation they built. I've never been one to work with the 'larger' shops, but UGR changed my opinion. I would build a car with Kevin in a heartbeat. And most likely will very soon.

As for Eric and Peter's cars, they are unbelievable. They were run hard for 2 hours yesterday and today with countless 1300-1400hp pulls and they never hiccuped once. Again, the quality of the tuning and hardware was impressive as I honestly expected there to be a few issues to work through right off the dyno, but they ran like they had 5k miles on them. As much as I love Supras, I'm hooked on 10 cylinders!

We gave the video to UGR's video guy who will sort through what we took and edit a clip very soon. I hope the runs I taped hanging outside the rental car at 100 mph turns out ok.

Couldn't agree anymore with your assessment!! I was truly shocked to see the facilities, but even more so with the employees and their work practices. Every toolbox was neat and tidy, every nut, bolt, push pin, whatever was put into a zip lock bag and sealed with the customers name and location of part. Seats were wrapped for storage, clear bonnets wrapped for storage, and cars were taped off extremely well also. Shop was clean as could be as well, which if you've ever worked on cars, is no easy task!! Top notch outfit for sure.

Peter needs to post the picture of the rental cars brakes that we "bedded" in for them .
Wish we had a picture of the three of us with our arms on the rental car while the cop was checking our ID's after a reverse doughnut and reverse to drive drop in the parking lot . Ahhh, good times!!!!
I wish we could have stayed there longer, what a BLAST!!!
