Saddly, I have parted out this car, ebayed the parts and sold the car as stock this past spring. However, it was replaced by a 2005 Pontiac GTO which is nearly as fast and far more fun to drive. You can see my profile here: Jasons 2005 GTO

Prior to selling the car and since my last update here, the car got a custom 8 rib crank pulley to overdrive the Vortech to just over 18psi at the 9000rpm redline. Lets just say it was extremely fast compared to before. But an oil pump failure at a bad time cost the motor some damage and it was never raced or dyno tested at that boost level. Based on 'seat of the pants' feel, it would have easily pulled the 11's I was just short of at 15psi and I figure it was around 380-400whp. (It had also undergone some engine work and a complete retune which increased power noticeably at 15psi and even more so at 18psi.)

Any doubters may register at ClubSi.com and PM SiRacer, I will provide links to the timeslips.

Not much to describe. The car is a sleeper... Other than a mild drop from the coilover suspension and an aftermarket exhaust, the car appears stock front to back. That is only to mask the monster that rests under the hood. That monster being a fully built B16 sleeved and assembled by Bensons Performance Machine. Pistons are from Endyn, rods from Crower and head bolts from ARP. The head and Type-R intake manifold were ported and "worked" by Endyn. Engine managment is done by a Hondata Stage3 system & 550cc RC fuel injectors.

It has a modified Vortech Supercharger pushing 15psi @ 8900rpm which nets over 350 horsepower and 220 torque at the wheels on 91 octane pump gas. (Roughly 410 flywheel horsepower.) The car has ran a best of 12.3 @ 116mph at KCIR in Kansas City, Missouri in June 2003. This was only its 5th pass on slicks though no runs have been made since. Future plans are to remove the Vortech supercharger and replace it with a turbo setup from Full Race which should net over 450 horsepower at the wheels.
