So fuckin bad ass...
Only problem with a car like that is that I could never drive it! It's too perfect to damage!

You don´t have to damage it while driving. For sure things can happen but my insurance for the car will cover everything.

That's impressive! Especially doing it yourself. You lucky bastard! Keep up the most excellent work man! Cars and electronics, not very many people have those sets of skills, especially to be able to do it nice like this. Incredible. You are quite the talented individual, I must say.

Thanks to Matt i just secured another important item i need for my car. As we discovered the car has a hard time breathing out (Didn´t think that the 500cui would be too much for 2.5 inch system) i need to upgrade my exhaust system. Buying those pipes in austria would be double, if not triple the amount.

Ok phew... I love straight pipes at the drag strip but they suck on a road car.
