Awesome MrC. Will you guys be tackling the pricing for motor builds afterward, or do you already have a cost structure for building motors.

LOL...nah took the tC apart. For a new manifold, downpipe, (followed that DIY on the wrinkle print, and doing some painting), valve cover paint done. Need to paint the pipes now. Working on tuning it as well.

So, we brought the Z down, and I'm sitting in my hotel in St. Pete right now. Trying to hook up with Mike while I'm down here, perhaps meet up in Orlando.

Yeah that's VHT paint. I was going back and forth on paint choice and was going to go with red valve and black pipes. But I started getting feedback to go with red pipes as well, like the PTuning car. So....Red it is.

Can't argue that, the Red is PIMP. Thanks for the inspiration PTuning.

Question... on the first page, the car seems to have a lot of sheet metal bolted on. Now I assume this is your race car, but could you go into more detail as to what was done?

UPDATE: We are still working out all the details (incl. design, cost, turn around time, etc.) before we can announce the final pricing and availability.

Thank you for your continue patience on this matter.

Regards,
Mike @ PTUNING
