Thanks guys. As many of you know the pics never seem to do it justice. The in-person sensation of these cars is WOW!

I'm already yearning for more power. I come from having an 850 rwhp trans am and a 520hp srt8 jeep in the garage. This car takes what power it has to such an impressive level that just a tad more will make it perfect IMO.

Slated mods will be tires (toyo r888's), wilwood brake kit, and i'm stuck between a twin screw blower or staying all motor and just doing a head and cam package on the coyote. I love the N/A high winding motors in these cars...just sounds more "period correct" even though this car is anything but...

One question, how restrictive are the manifolds and side pipes fitted from the factory? Is there a replacement that will open them up but not deafen me or the occupants?
