Very nice! Can the bar coming through the plate be removed? Take some pics of the inside handle when you get a chance.

Looks great!

Or take it around the block!
Hope you know how to repack it properly!

Nothing crazy. We're taking the top of the ground zero LIM, cutting it off, welding on a 5" plenum, 4 volicity stacks, and an adapter plate for a 90mm throttle body.

Damn, your car looks nice and clean. I see you have 08 tags. Do you drive this car on the street?

That would be funny if the chute accidentally deployed while you were driving on the freeway.

150 mph. That is like high 8's to low 9's in the 1/4!

More HP!!!

Is that bar coming out of the plate detachable if you wanted to drive on the street?

How come you opted to mount the release on the bottom instead of the top, just curious..

If you ever sell this car, i'm refinancing my house and buying it LOL! Everything on your car is done really tastefully with no expense spared.

Yes the bar come totally out so its much nicer to drive on the street. And yes the chute come out with one bolt.
Installer wasn't sure where to install it on the roof, plus the chute cable is really stiff and it would have looked shity. It was a much cleaner look where he mounted it.
