AWESOME RIDE!!!!!!!
Those are some Sweet Pics!
Is all of that for Show, or do you race that Bad-Boy?!?!?!

anthony05gt · Mar 19, 2006

Raced once last week. Found out my new clutch has a problem. Can't speed shift, only granny shifting until I straighten the clutch out.

11.226 best et. 1.52 best 60ft and the granny shifting brought the mph down to 118.22 during the 11.226 run.

Great lookin ride, what color are the stripes?

firestang70 · Mar 19, 2006

I love the hood scoop! You should turn that into a functional shaker! I love the wheels as well. that is a very nice ride!

anthony05gt · Mar 19, 2006

The stripes are silver with a hint of pearl gold. The hood is a functional ram air. With the blower, the air filter is in a slightly different location than where the hood dumps air into the engine compartment.

Oh DUH I see that now looking at it closer. Very nice! That is one very sweet ride.

Why did you swap your tranny? which one did you get?

CatmanJJ · Mar 20, 2006

Looks mean as ****, watch out for speedbumps, lol.

anthony05gt · Mar 20, 2006

I swapped the tranny from an auto to a manual because the boost from the blower had me worried about the auto holding up. Besides, nobody did the swap yet and I felt it was a cool challenge.

Believe me, I watch the speed bumps. I've got 5" of clearance.

One of the best looking '05s I've seen!

FLY2kGT · Mar 20, 2006

I saw you are running 11 lbs and didn't see any internal changes listed in the mods section, have you changed anything?

anthony05gt · Mar 20, 2006

I'm running 11lbs. and the only reason I went that high is the car was recently involved in a magazine shoot which involved more than just photos. We had a half a dozen or so 1/4 mile runs at a prominent track which required a good performance. I was lucky enough to have a guy fly up from Diablo and dyno tune the car which involved probably 8 hours, maybe less. Then he was data logging each run and making tweeks to the tune. That kind of attention to the tune takes a lot of the danger out of running 11lbs. boost or I wouldn't have kept it at that level. If I end up blowing it, which is still possible, I'll just have to deal with it. I don't run it too hard and try to stay under 6100 on street shifts and will try to stay away from the track except once in a while. It was Justin Burcham who hooked me up with all of the attention and the tune. He's been great and gave me an opportunity that I couldn't refuse. I can't discuss any details of the photo shoot and what the article is all about as requested by the magazine editor. I guess puting all of cash into the car over the past 16 months paid off for me. The article is probably 3-4 months from release.

Wow, that's pretty sharp! I'd like to get something similar to that on external mods, but I can't do it myself. I'm tech-ignorang! Nice ride!

anthony05gt · Mar 20, 2006

I appreciate all the compliments! It makes all of the effort much more worth it.
