I actually spoke with Chris the other night. He said it actually dyoed in the 700hp range. It is the Weber Sports kit. He confirmed that. He does drive it infact he was driving it when I was talking to him with the top down. Anyway he said it pretty much looks like the white Amuse car or will be in a month or so. I guess he is getting it ready for HIN San Mateo which is in a couple months. His Toda ITB's should be installed and his other goodies. I guess Super Street is going to run his car again. When they did my shoot they said he has a good chance to make cover again since there was or will be a drastic change with the car. Anyway he cleared up a lot of stuff with me on members transactions which IMO was good.

trust me its 1/10 at max, the car probabily sits on the trailer more than on the road. I was wondering how he could reach such a HP level while maintaining the stability of the engine, but on a second thought, maybe he doesnt drive the car at all. Well I'd like to see a dyno sheet of the car anyways.

I am out, hitting to the gym to release some negative energy.
the dyno sheet is above..

Not to try and shoot the guy down or anything, but just because you have a bunch of rare and expensive parts doesn't always make it a great car and for some reason that is how I am feelin on this setup. It just looks like he piled a bunch of expensive parts on there and said here it is! But whatever, if he wants to spend hundreds of thousands of dollars on his s2k then more power to him.

So much money dumped into this car and still doesn't look right...... that's sad

I think only ricers will appreciate the money and work which has been done to his car.

That's one interesting looking car, I would've done it differently. But hey, to each his own! Props for making the magazine

I was just wondering where the 852 number came from??? Is that crank HP? i was shooting for a high number like him but he beat me to it damn it lol. Only one BOV though as far as i know 850hp would blow that thing off alright.Just curious i don't know the guy so i cant post negative comments. However I do agree about, a lot of money being thrown into the car doesn't make it nice. As a generalized statement.
