TopDawg_43 Posted September 15, 2006 Author Report Share Posted September 15, 2006 Got the car put together and "running" :roll: , and it runs like nothing I've ever heard before. And it does actually rev like my (v-twin) motorcycle, maybe even quicker. Although I'm not sure how much the Fidanza has to do with this. Now if I could just get it drivible, I think I'd be in good shape. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm dieing to get a bigger IC and get it tuned to see what she really wants to do. Right now if I'm rolling in 2nd, 3rd, or 4th and lay into it, it's GONE!!! I am 1000% happy with the rebuild and everything that I put into it. And I have to say between the FW and the crank it is a BEAST! I'd like to think that I'm getting at least 300hp (which was my goal) right now, but I want to put it on a dyno to be sure. My son ride in it for the first time this weekend. You should have heard him scream when I laid into it. Almost made me :cry:. That made me feel like it was a real success. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
