Steve J. is an unknown quantity at this point

Actually, I have no displacement limit, as I am running supermod

I chose an m52 2.8L because it works great with turbos. 350-380whp/wtrq will be super easy, very reliable, running very low boost, will be extremely driveable, and thats the main focus. Any more power and I'd probably be slower as I'd have to control the power. Conservatively, lets say its 2600lbs wet with driver, and ~425hp, thats about all I would want, anymore and I'd either need more rear tire, or TC.

I have had a lot of progress, unfortunately the car is still in hiatus as the garage nears completion.

Wing end plate supports are done, shifter project is well on its way, Ohlins are being built, money is disappearing fast

Also picked up a new helmet, had to wait 7 months b/c of a manufacturing plant relocation in europe, but it was worth the wait.
