Default Turbonetics Celica...

Its gonna be SICK this season. Just went and saw it last night. All new body, new motor, new turbo setup. Its silver now and doesnt have any major graphics on it yet. Shifter was changed to a stick-style as opposed to the button style that was on it... Pics to come when they get back from Vegas. Bradenton 2 days ago netted something like a 7.4@190 on 32 lbs of boost "not pushing it"

Should be some tight racing in their class this year. Looks like Bob Reiger decided to "throw his hat in the ring" a build an import car for the 2003 season.

I was talkig to one of the guys working on the celica before they had put it on the track at bradenton. He said the engine dynoed at 1300hp and 700 or 900 something torque. Not bad for a v6

1200-1300hp numbers on these motors is pretty much the standard in the class on meth. It's going to be very competitive this year.
Actually it is a v6, I walked up to the car while the guys were working on it and talked to them. I'm pretty sure I know what a v6 and an inline 6 looks like, IT IS A V6!!
