Nice man! done yet! its perfect!
But to be honest i dont really like the bonnet :\ but that doesnt matter...

[fto-007]

yeah im not fussed on it...later on ill paint it the same as the car i tried to get a firerglass one but they didnt make then in that style nor make a standard one in fiberglass that i could do some custom vents in it...the bonnet was to try get some of the heat out :/ still way too hot under there have to buy an aluminum radiator for it, it cools it up to 40% better

Looks so clean
Great job on it!

[fto-007]

getting there slowly made 300hp atw @17psi...spins 3rd @ 100kmh ha ha have to hold on lol....as it didnt make as much power or rev as expected some research was done to find the custom 272/300 cams were never zeroed in....they were zeroed in to the custom cam gears which arent right....so i have to zero the cams in mark TDC on the cam gears and change the timing to the right point... then should produce power to 9K and around 400hp atw on pump!!!!!

I sooo want!!

I as well do not like the hood
Once it's painted white it should look much better though

Amazing build, kudos to you man. I've always been advised not to spend too much on my FTO, so I'll be switching cars when my degree is over and I've settled into a better job, but I've always wondered what COULD happen if someone went all out. Thank you, sir, for bringing my dream to life. The car looks and sounds incredible, and I, like everyone else here, can't wait to see the final result. Cheers from far, far away

I would have to 2nd that ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ .
Sounds like a sh*t load of fun.

[Technikhaus]

180 in 4th? I could only hit 180 in my FTO in the top range of 5th!
I mean, I didn't try that....


Build looks awesome though, and I want one!

[fto-007]

you have to hang onto the wheel with both hands thats for sure i have hit rev limiter in 5th gear.....i thought i had another gear left, then i was like ok im in 5th time to slow down

[ZFL45H1]

that's crazy man how u decided to put that much unusable power in a fwd is insane hahaha but super cool

[fto-007]

it started off with a little turbo and not building the engine too a fully built engine with a massive turbo ha ha did get a little out of control
