Looks good! I'd bet it's pretty fast.

I think people want to see a side profile to judge it's wheels and fitment...and some sticker shots...

no profile shots yet, photographer is still editing a bunch...in all honesty i'd have to ask my dad for a mod list cause i can't even keep up with it, lol...hasn't been dyno'd since the bottles were put in (2 50 shots) and he's already planning on switching the intake and running a 2 stage direct port injection setup

^ probably to make sure it's dropped and not on stock wheels and hopefully with it's brakes upgraded to ZR1 brakes...

Your getting weird with your fitment hate.

Needs adjustable suspension and bigga brakes!

Unless it's a 1/4 car... Then yea, I want wheels specs. I wanna see like 13s back there!

One of the rare cars that can put anything bigger than 12s to use.

No fitment hate here. It's just sad when people think wheel fitment and stickers is all there is to car modding. I don't believe in "offset is EVERYTHING" and the form>function crap.

Any info on the mods? Dyno sheets? Would be interesting to see what's actually under the hood.
