Lol thats awesome Josh.

Any plans to make it look a bit prettier.....maybe chop the top and paint it flat black.
No way! Right now we're calling it the dumpster because it is so hammered and ugly.

Power by bottle, right?

Whatcha doing to the trans?

Projected race weight?

What fuel mods? Injectors? Dual cp3? Big single? All stock?


Just curious. It's cool as heck!

Power by bottle, right? Yes

Whatcha doing to the trans? Lots of billet parts, new clutches, and valve body/hydraulic modifications. It's getting built by someone local who builds a lot of high performance 4L80Es.

Projected race weight? I'm hoping to have it down around 5500 lbs at race weight with driver.

What fuel mods? Injectors? Dual cp3? Big single? All stock? Lift pump and fuel cell will be the only fuel mods. Turbo will be stock.

Just curious. It's cool as heck! Thanks

When I first clicked on this thread I said to myself "I bet James is gonna be the first guy to see this thread and respond". :D

I heard a rumor this was in the works and it been all I could do NOT to post threads asking for more info:joker:





Where/when is the first race going to be?

doubt it would happen, but I'd love to be there:D

I was hoping that exhaust was an intermediate pipe running to a monster turbo handing out up front :D
I wish, but I think for now, we'll have to settle for a turbo in a bottle.

It will most likely make it's maiden voyage down the track on April 13th in Ennis at the test and tune on the Friday before the NHRDA race on the 14th at the same track. Not much time to get everything ironed out. I'm keeping my fingers crossed that everything works as planned.

This van will get a great reaction from people. I can just see jaws dropping and tons of YouTube hits to see "street fighter service van kill" don't paint the mother, don't do a damn thing! The humiliation will be that much more severe!
