thanks for all the comments guys.. yea he's been doing body work since he was young.. now at 30 (i believe) 10 years in the wheele chair.. my cuz is nutz.. i bought the big ass 700 tank for him to spray with.. he's got a mask, uses it most times.. his hands are like leather lol they dont feel ****.. he's nutz man i tell yea.. he has, and drives, a high 10 sec mustang using a damn stick to press the gass.. did ya notice how we also extended the rear panels to match the wing? first and only one to ever do that..

i've got 750's on there, return line coming b4 spring. i had an e01 with emanage for tuneing but something happend to it.. i picked up the SCT flashing device and tuning software. it controls all parameters of the pcm.. i can basically change everything around as i please..

i haven't even started the motor yet, so dnt know about the cams.. the crower cams are ones that some don't like on srts. mostly cause of the rough ass idle.. many like the BC's though..

come spring time i'll be shooting for 600 hp, maybe more i dnt know.. just so i can get in the tens. u dn't need that much for 10's though.. i will be raising the rev limit. as well with the SCT..

lol.. not yet.. just under 10 grand ive spent on this in 4 yrs.. and that's from a few mistakes of buying parts and having to replace them (still have some to replace)

unless i come into some good money, like the lottery, i wont try and buy an exige for atleast 3 yrs.. getting a house next summer so i'll have the garage.. if it's not 3 cars i'll build it to be and also have plans of putting a lift in it..

That lumpy ass sound is awesome though. Are you going to be running a wastegate dump?

The rear lip is REALLY well done, very big props on that. Paint choice was excellent as well. Nice to see a classy Neon
