Yeah, I've seen that bumper too. It's still a street car remember?
Im probably at 2750# right now with me in it full exhaust, and gas. I can cut another 100# with a CF hood, sunroof plug and the cf doors. I think 2650 is where shep's car weighed, I'm assuming with him in it.
The tubular front subframe would be badass. There's also an electric power steering unit that attaches right to the rack, but thats around $6k.
I'll let you guys know here on Friday whether we're going to martin.

There are all sorts of electric power steering units that you can use. There is one that goes for $400 on ebay from a Renault Clio that has a load sensing pressure regulator that works well. It is what I will be running on my car with a switch. Only turn it on in a parking lot when you need p.s. and have it off at the track.

We're planning to go today to 131!! Not shooting for any records but did manage to get the 2step working with a nice launch. The coil feed wires were arcing, causing headache all week. Got it fixed.
Boost is tuned to work around 25psi but we'll see if we can raise that some and get the fuel leaned out better. Not much time to really tune. Spent a few hours on the road and had a few complaints called in. The muffler blew off too on the nlts. Got that fixed hopefully too.

Lets put it this way. I'm 99% sure its the 9" rear end thats broke. It broke backing out of the garage. Felt it bind up as i turned the wheel. Then it was clunking every 2/3 of a revolution or so. Drained the oil from the diff, there is some metal in it. I'll pull the ujoint off tomorrow and confirm for sure its nothing up front. I'm VERY unhappy. Something is either defective, or it wasn't set right or something not tightened down to spec.
Kassie at least got to run her car for a 11.91 first run of the season. She gets her 60fts down and stops tripping the beams early and it will be low to mid 11's. I logged 60lb/min of airflow.
