2004 S/C Marauder by Reinhart

[Dennis Reinhart]

First of all I want to thank John for allowing me to do the work on his car, he heard about me from this great club, he did not even own a Marauder I said no problem. I located him a brand new Black 04 here in Jacksonville, I went down and looked at the car, it had 300 miles on the clock, the hood needed re'dipped, other than that it was perfect, we installed our Vortech S trim water to air supercharger kit – with a 3.61 pulley and 8 PSI the car made 420 RWHP with 390 RWT with only 300 miles on the odometer, we also installed the Rear engine cooling kit, Level two transmission, with Transmission cooler and Braided steel lines, upgrade, PI 3000 Stall Converter, Meziere electric water pump, Metal matrix drive shaft, Rear ADDCO sway bar, Reinhart custom exhaust system, with Magnaflow Mufflers, Zac Mac control arms, KVR 4 wheel brake upgrade, Auto meter upgrade oil pressure gauge, Fuel pressure gauge, Sylvania silver stars, in the headlights and turn signals bulbs and yes I figured out the fog light bulbs to. I also had the stereo upgraded with infiniti speakers and Dynamatt, Right now the car made 431 RWHP with just the switch to the Magnaflow mufflers, once the engine loosens up a bit I am sure the numbers will go up, you should have seen his face today when I showed him in the parking lot what a difference the 3000 stall makes from a dead stop, can you say roasted tires.

Sounds like this guy has deep pockets. It must be nice to get a new MM with all that stuff on it. You left hardly no room for upgrades. Nice work Dennis. I am sure he will be happy with his new beast. By the way, with all that new power maybe he should get his rear wheels widened to help put it to the ground.

Great stuff Dennis:up:

I enjoyed the slide show:):):)

Dennis, your #1 gets a lot of love in San Diego every day, from civilians too! Roasted the tires on the pier last week and thought the young Ensign in the pax seat was going to have a heart attack!

Beautiful job, Dennis. The slide show was super. Did John get to drive a "stock" MM before he drove that one? The grin factor must be very satisfying. :up:

Bigslim has said it all.

The Vortech system as well the upgrades stated puts this car in a class all its own for the new owner. Incredible!!

To invest in the best PERSONAL choices of equipment is to have a real 'keeper' for the long haul.

Using this car as a 'special' occasion driver would be MY intent.
Prudent operation coupled with meticulous care will provide the owner with a vehicle that delivers panache and outstanding performance.

To the Owner: enjoy...its a well sorted and beautiful machine.

To Dennis Reinhart: your attention to detail and workmanship is exemplary!!

You left hardly no room for upgrades. Nice work Dennis.
My thoughts exactly as I was reading the list !! :whistle: Of course, there are always Inserts and a new grill to occupy his time. :D Does this Beast have a name? :dunno:

Dennis That sounds great. IMO if you are going to MOD do it all at once if you can. :2thumbs:
