It is a low mile MFR rew. Good compression and sounds healthy. My goal for now is 9.5 sec on pump gas. I want to be able to drive it to the track lay down a mid 9 trough the exhaust and drive it home at least once. With the weight of the car it should take about 450 whp to do this. Muuuhhhoooooohhhhhhhaaaaahhhhha.

Got more pics i can post if you like.

I dont know the weight of the car but I guess it will be between 1800-2000 lbs. Ihe intercooler is actually inside the car,water to air, that is the heat exchanger in front of the radiator. The heat exchanger cools the water that is pumped trough the intercooler. I will post some more pics in about 2 hours. Yes the fan on the heat exchanger is a pusher.

duh...I tried to edit that post earlier, guess it didn't go thru. I noticed the IC in the car afterwards. Do you have a tranny cooler as well?
