Hey all,
I have a 05 that I am about to build. I am having Speed Inc, in Schaumburg do my car, it will be a twin turbo set up.
I will have thwin clutch plates, new 3.15 gears, B&M short throw shifter, new rear axles, Hotchkis sway bars, new 402 block, 900 hp dual pump fuel system and much more.
Without actual dyno yet, the estimated power will be about 650 RWHP on 93 octane pump gas and about 800 RWHP on racing fuel. I will be sure to set up a thread once the build starts in a few weeks, it should be capable of low 10's on street tires at almost 200 mph, 0-60 in 2.4-2.6 seconds, should be AWESOME!!!!
