Not sure about the diesel like torque remark.. I can say that the monster low end torque would be described as seat of your pants.. " "OH SH** HOLD ON" torque

That is a sweet build, and some serious numbers.. I would be interested in a build like that.. Did you have to forge the lower end? What is the cost for the upgrade if I have eforce 599, and lt headers already? Where are you guys located?

Hey Anthony,

Bit too far for me to travel from AZ, do you have a link to the Head and Cam upgrade, I'm looking to upgrade my cam and dependant on $$ may as well do the heads if they are any good.

Eforce 599 Kit, Already have your 1 7/8 LG Superpros and the GT2 Coilovers...

+1 on the cam and heads info.. Pls email me info as well.
As far as the OD lower, are you concerned about increased boost levels to the stock lower end??? Will it take it?? I run the track often..
Thanks!

That car was built as a street/show car. So the chances of it going 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th 50-180 mph down a runway are pretty slim but WOT 1, 2nd, 3rd more than likely. If it was going to be a built standing mile car, a forged piston wouldn't be a bad idea, along with race fuel and maybe even more boost. However as it sits, it is a blast as a 93 octane pump gas car and a nice alternative to a ZR1 and would not need to have a forged bottom end.
