Well gang I'm back from Fla. what a trip, 24 mpg.
2003 300A MM X '03 Cobra motor X 444rwt X 14psi boost X 5000rpm X 3rd gear = 140mph. My cop buddies on Hatteras Island love this car and dream of the day NC. comes through and gets on the MM bandwagon.
Thanks to the whole gang at Reinhart's, I was stunned when Steve walked in to do the surgery on my car, I told Dennis two years ago to snag that kid, he would stop by after work to see the days results and talk to me, I was giddy because I knew this was going to be a good effort. I know Todd's Turbo car is going to be great because Steve has a ton of experiance in building turbo cars to get the results Todd is looking for, kuddos to Dennis for having a top team to help us.
The rear brakes from TCE help more than I thought and I can feel the rears clampping down now.
I love the 3.27 rear gear I went to, now the car feels like my Roadrunner which is the whole point of the direction I have gone to with this car, a new 4 door Roadrunner with 444rwt at 2000rpm,I could have kissed Dennis. Look at the dyno chart Dennis posted, I could hardly wait to get out of town, this thing down shifts like silk and has got long legs that pushes you back in the seat and storms to 140 at only 5000rpm. I'll have to go out west to test out 4th gear. Now where is that SOB that just showed up in my hood with the MB S65 AMG twin turbo with 612 hp., come here little Benzy
