Thank you. The SC can definitely hold its own compared to the Supra.

Thank you sir! The center of the wheels are brushed aluminum then anodized black. I wanted something a little different than all polished. I think the color combination went together rather well.

Thank you. The car made 744 at 25 psi. There are plenty of other SCs out there making more power but this car is too much to handle as it is.

You are going to love the TT motor, even at BPU. It will make the car a completely different animal. I was originally going to go with the HKS Twins but decided against it. Its a complicated setup and I like to keep things more simple. There are two different versions of the V160 shifter. I like it low like that. Good luck with your swap!

The car was in 4th gear and I think we were close to 135mph. In the video of the whole car, you can see Jonny sitting in the trunk because it was spinning its wheels.

Thanks man! I do have a 92 or 93 accord. I cant remember the year. Its pretty bad ***.

I do have a dyno sheet. Ill try to get it posted soon.

I didnt know if anyone would notice the "turbo" emblem. I though it would be a nice touch. As did Jonny

Ive just started messing with HDRs. Its definitely time consuming but the pictures they produce

Thank you! The car doesnt "lope" as much as it used to. That video was before the car was tuned. You should have seen some of the looks I get of people pulling up next to me.

The exhaust was made by me and mostly by a friend of mine. It took us 2 or 3 days to get everything cut and tacked together. Its 4" off the turbo then 4" downpipe to a 4" midpipe to a 4" Y then dual 4" out the back.

Thank you sir! Everybody told me not to get the Classics, especially in black. After I put them on, they pretty much ate their words.

That has to be one of the meanest sounding cars in the SC300/400 forums hands down. Beautiful execution sir. and a lap dance for you.

Car looks great! Very nice execution!

Do you ever worry about shiza flying into the BOV? dust, rocks, bugs, etc?

Thank you. I had so many problems with these cams. I would advise everyone I know against Crower. Check out this thread for more details:

Thanks! Everyone told me to go with the SP500s but I had a feeling the Classics would look just as good.
