Prepped a 1150whp TTSaleen for car show

[CivicBeater]

So an extremely cool local guy (now friend) hit me up for a little prep for a car show this past weekend.



Gave it a very good foam bath after it was extremely covered in dust from sitting at the performance shop and making it's way back from Kentucky (i believe) where he was entered in the King of the Street competition for 5.0 magazine.



Extremely cool car, makes 1150whp on about 26psi. Once he swaps out wastegate springs he'll push about 30 psi and make a teeny bit more power



Well, he did hit me up last second and the car needed to be done Friday night the day before the show. By the time I left my full time job I arrived about 7pm. Gave it a good caredul foam bath using gilmour foam gun with megs super soap. Followed by megs car wash. Then threw on a coat of the good ole m7 topped with m21. Took about 5 hours. I was wiped, he took some pics of me in action, followed by one final pic I took..

looking pretty at the show the next day:

You can see it in action this past saturday here:

What's even cooler is that he drives it to car shows with the a/c on full blast. Car idles and starts perfectly. Also, has full interior. These are some of the reasons in my opinion that make this a bad-*** ride!

Owning 2 SN95 mustangs myself, i have no idea how that guy can drive around with what looks to be a 5 inch cowl hood .... i guess with 1000+HP you couldnt see the road anyways so who cares!



what does that fender badge read? 331?

Sweetness! I hope someday I get to work on a car like that. So, did you get to drive it?

With that kind of power you drive out the side windows a lot :LOLOL



So the cowl hood isn't in the way too often except at redlights :nervous2:
