You need to find a way of piping the turbine into the exhaust to give you mega scavaging of the cylinders! Lol

Isn’t a pound of thrust equal to 2hp? If so that’s 140hp that doesn’t have to be put to the ground through your tires.

You'll be cutting it close for sure. Hope you're having better luck than I am and we see you there. Can't guarantee my car will be ready. After dealing with several of the local tuner shops (over the past year), I've got a serious case of "tuner blues". But it won't stop me from being a spectator if all else fails.

Hmmm in that case someone needs to stick 10 of these things on the back of a stock engined car and have the fastest stock more car!

Then again why not fit a proper jet engine! Lol

I think G1Pro should make the tail pipe out of billet stainless as well. Then you could have it as a proper collector and use the turbine to pul the exhaust gasses out the headers.

I am not really sure what the equation is for Thrust to HP vs Thrust to Force.
I was told through various websites that this engine will move my car from a standstill pretty easily. If thats the case thats a 1:1 ratio in the terms of force required to move the car. Which means this little bastard could actually be making some power.

Still here Brothers. I have had an extremely busy year.... Got engaged and it went viral and then got married,and bought a plane. Closed down my old shop and opened Dark Night Specialities in Houston TX off of FM 1960 and 45 North.I took a little bit of a break on the car because after I finished all the work on the car it still had a random misfire. Will be back on it here in a month or so. Need to finish this up.

Congrats on a phenomenal year! The details on the car are looking awesome. I've got the engine out of mine to freshen it up. Is the new shop open for customers?
