Late Night WRAP Up For The VividRacing SEMA Cars

Publishsed by Dan on October 31st, 2008 | Posted in Project Cars | No Comments »

The GTR and EVO X are ready to head up to SEMA in Las Vegas. Tomorrow they will board a transporter from NorwalkTow.com for the trip up. The EVO X will be showcased in the Toyo Tires booth and the GTR will be a feature vehicle for Capital Forged wheels. Thanks to AZ local XSell Media for helping us get the GTR wrapped like a WWII Japanese Zero fighter plane.

We Test the New Agency Power Race Exhaust for the 997 Turbo

Publishsed by Dan on October 27th, 2008 | Posted in Project Cars | No Comments »

There are many exhaust systems on the market for the Porsche 997 Turbo.  Agency Power has some of the best exhausts for cars like the Subaru STI, BMW M3, Scion TC, and Mitsubishi EVO.  The Porsche 996 Turbo and Carrera exhausts by Agency Power have been populer.  But instead of doing a typical exhaust system, Agency Power wanted to build a Race Exhaust for those looking to gain maximum horsepower, save weight, and have a sound that screams speed.

This prototype exhaust features 304 stainless steel.  It uses high flow 200 cell catalytic converters and dual inline muffers before the X pipe which exits out the rear of the car.  Now that the testing has been complete, the next stage is to dress up the exhaust a bit.  The goal is to have quad colored titanium tips exiting from the rear bumper.  We are going to change up the muffler slightly to quiet down the exhaust alittle more.  The entire system will be polished for a show finish.  The exhaust weighs only about 17lbs.  That is almost 40lbs lighter then the stock unit!

Check out the pics of the fabricating process and our YouTube Video Clip Below.
