Default RPM's "Sleeper" Package Traps 150mph

We built this car for a customer in Panama. He wanted us to run it for his before we shipped it off. I am VERY Happy with how it ran. More details in link description in vid. This was on 18psi max in 4th. Made 1012rwhp on the dyno at 20psi. I could easily get the car into the 9's with more practice. It is still a stock Trans and Stock Diff in the car so i was being easy on it.

Nice power, at least when this one fails after a couple hundred miles the car's gonna be far away.

We originally built the car for a customer in NC about 2.5 years ago and it was making 880rwhp. The new owner bought the car and we changed the clutch and turbos/downpipes.

The trans and diff. will last as long as he doesnt launch it hard. He has a few other HIGH hp cars also and just wanted a fun street car. He wont be taking this to the track so i feel it should last.
