Introduction and new owner in San Antonio

[tanner]

Some of the names I recognize from the Viper world. Friends with Ray, Cody, and Jerry, and a proud new owner of a silver/black car. I have been after Cody at ART for quite some time to part with his silver car, and am incredibly excited to have a GT, and can't wait for the twins to be finished up. Ray has been a bad influence and continues to push the boundaries of these cars.

Excited to say the least.:biggrin:biggrin:biggrin

Congrats! I'm in Austin and should be taking delivery of my car hopefully by the months end. We will have to rally somewhere in the spring.

 

[tanner]

Sounds good to me. I hope to have the car home in a month or so. It is under the knife in Buda currently.

You'll enjoy your new car for sure!

Welcome!

Uuuuh...have you chosen the folding chair you'll be needing out in your garage yet? (You'll understand shortly! :lol)

Tim/Empty, thanks a bunch. I have 2000 feet of detached garage, and then a little attached one car next to my home office. It will be in the attached so I see it constantly. Just had the flooring diamond ground and checkered so it will have it's own little neat space. I am looking for some different HRE's for the car as I type this. Turbos, plumbing, intake, etc...will be black and changed up a little from this picture.

Eeeeeeeeh...'looks it may be a bit LACKING in the m.p.G. department, don'tcha think? I mean, what will all the "greenies" say?

THAT is impressive.

 

[tanner]

That is a one off from ART. I love having the turbos up for the eye factor. Their standard kits have the turbos mounted down. Both drive great, but I preferred the look of this one. It definitely is a little more involved on the fabrication side, but the look is worth it in my opinion.

Empty, more like GPM (gallon per minute). I am sure the greenies hate me for it, which makes me even happier.

I will certianly post some updates once the car starts going back together.

I agree it is an extremely beautiful layout.

The turbos themselves look big, do you mind sharing the PSI and power levels?

Edit; are there intake filters in there down low?

 

[tanner]

2112, thanks. I remember seeing the kit the first time, and literally was stuck on the motor for a good hour. Layout is a good term, and I think it looks fantastic. The car has diamond pistons now, but previous boost was at 18 if I recall, and made around a thousand or so. I am not looking to push the limits, just wanted a nice strong street car. Anywhere north or south of the 900-1000 mark is plenty for my use. I will leave the truly nasty stuff for guys like Ray and SW.

How does ART filter the intake charge? Do you have pics of the headers?

 

[tanner]

Don't have any good pictures of it for you at this point.

How exciting! Congratulations and welcome!

Congrats and have fun with that beast.

I no longer own the company as of mid 2010.

The intake pipes run to the side scoops to a set of K&N filters.

Link not working. Is the business still a going concern?

Are you out on your own now?
