This is a very nice thread with all the photos and info about the car.
But, now it is not 100% street legal. It has a full cage, small brake, and the list keeps going. you can not call this a street can this is now a RACE CAR!
and to the 400hp at 20psi yes good power i made that way back in the day on stock evo9 turbo with a lot less parts. and the tune was on 93 pump with very easy easy turn for my every day driving.
Not bash or anything but i thought people love to see full built street cars not full race cars. since you can only do one thing with this car now which is race on the 1/4 track.
Well best of luck to you for the 2009 year, hope to see you on the top of the list for which ever turbo you go with. since it is now a full race car.

You should just keep your comments to yourself.
Anyone can change dyno calibrations to make your claimed "numbers"
Most know that a 16g at 20psi won't hit 400whp without quite a bit of work done.
People love to see CLEAN fast cars not chopped up tin cans held together by zip tries. This is what Brian chose to build and what he wanted..
btw.. small brakes and a roll cage dont make a car illegal to drive on the street.. LOL
Yes its a race car, nobody is claiming this to be a full weight daily driver.. its still very clean and tasteful for a race car..

Are you kidding, coming from someone with one of the most hacked up evo's....

He uses duct tape not zip ties

before you make comments to me about my car you should do your research a little bit better before hand.

Having seen this car personally I can say it definitely is not a hacked up tin can.
It is what I would consider VERY TASTEFULLY built

Yes not disagreeing with it clean and all. but a 8.50 cage for the street is a little crazy!! no back seats. and small brakes make it hard to drive on street. deff not safe. and there is no front end of the car how can you have the street legal. LOL and little fuel cell! come on!
i dont know i like it yes clean nice well put together. but, it is no where near a street car now!
o well the fast street cars are going away and i guess new ones will come in.
again best of luck hope to see you do well this year.

Lighter the better in my opinion.
Things like engine vibration, loud exhausts, tiny carbon clutches, etc is what makes a street car feel like a race car. And most regulars to this forum have all that already!
Taking some weight out and making the car easier to work on are good things.
