well My name is Blake and im from Largo, and i have a 2001 New Formula red. The only mods i have now is a blownup engine. haha. no the only mods h have now is intake and my own custom exhaust using an HKS muffler. Loudest S2K in Clearwater. I am having my blown motor sent over to Durdan Perfab and our goal is to push about 650 to the wheels. Now let me edit what VVS said. I will be purchasing the Amuse GT1 wide body after my motor is done. Im having Jerry from XS Customs put it all together and mold the kit to the car. as far as paint goes we dont know yet. Thats all the info i have for you now. but im glad there are more cool people in tampa. I feel so isolated here in clearwater

vvs (James) is a cool guy. I think a lot of the guys hear I'm blowing this, wide body that, they've become jaded to it. You have to admit, they are ambitious plans.

Good luck with everything. 650 at the wheels is more than I've ever heard of.

a 240SX wit a skyline RB26DETT, He did a turbo BMW M3, as far as honda's go i dont know what he has done, but the thing is that he knows motors, he know how to build them, but i do think it is his partner Mike that is doing the work, alls i know is that they are very smart when it comes to motors, they even work on bikes

Hey, sorry man.. like Ztec said. I have heard a lot of stories from time to time...

I also heard Taylor closed his shop and will be over at Z-Fever now the same day you told me about your project so I was just putting 2+2 together.

Either way, sorry man. I usually never call people out like that and this is the reason.

Cant wait to see it when it is done.


James

I'm in for vvs is a cool guy!!!!

As for the 650 rwhp! Like Jvrbale said 650 is hard.

Chris Barnes has the most I have heard of, that is not a fable! 556 rwhp. Everything moded. 508 rwhp on 93 octane.

If you get the motor to handle it good luck with the rest of the car. tranny, axels, rearend!!!

It will cost a lot of money for the drivetrain mods and the kit will also. Trust me I know!! Just talk anyone on the FL forum. They know how much I have spent and I'm not going for over 600 rwhp.

All you have said, can be done, but I have to say I support vvs. We hear a lot of people say,"I am doing this and that", but from young guy and you have to say, where is the 10s of thousands of dollars coming from? You may be rich or you may be financing. Don't know, don't care but I remember when I drove the E-Type Jag I had through a drive thru and the guy handing me my food said," Hey if you ever sell that car, I'll buy it."

I'm thinking that is why questioning the validity of your comments.
