Good looking car! Remainds me of my old one. Same hood, wheels, etc. Mine was black. Good luck with the turbo set-up.

Thanks, Im not sure what kinda power its gonna make. Im switching to a glide over the winter which is gonna rob a little power but atleast I can leave under boost with a transbrake/2step. Gonna start out with around 10lbs, Im sure it will end up seeing 20lbs+ with the pistons through the pan. The car has been on the dyno once with a 150 shot it put down 358rwhp/498ftlbs.

Nice!

Is that car driven regularly on the street (and will it be?) or is it mainly a weekend play toy? Nice car!

Its tagged and all but I dont drive it much. I've taken it out a few times to "play". I mainly just run it 1/8mile tracks.

I've read alot about the MP turbos and they seem to be good quaility. Price was the major reason for going with the MP T70. I found a couple used Garretts that would have worked but for the same coin I went ahead and got a new MP.

.68/.70 "P" trim
