Yup it is still over there.... They are waiting to get the motor before they anodize anything.
Should be ready for testing in a couple weeks :D

Well got the motor dynoed
It made 1009 Horsepower at 6500 RPM
And the Torque is crazy it starts at 900 Lbs at 3000 RPM lol
We think the intercooler might be too restrictive we are only able to get 11 pounds of boost and we should be around 13 - 14 psi
Here it is on the Dyno
