But for now, what I will say is 800 horsepower never felt so good.
definitely keep this thread alive

My neighbor took a photo while we weren't looking, which is why the wheel has some brake dust on it.

We took a small cruise and had a bbq with some fellow enthusiasts this past weekend as a pre-MFest launch party.

Well, here it is!

Now let me give you the specifics...

2009 Premium Super Silver GT-R
29,xxx miles

This car was originally purchased new by a friend of ours. We've been modding the car since, so its pretty much been an extension of us since 2009. This is always a benefit when you eventually become the owner of the car.

What it has:
Turbo upgrade
1,150cc injectors for E-85
Dual 400lph fuel pumps
Custom fuel system
Trust front mount intercooler
Dual HKS blow off valves
Trust titanium catback exhaust
Downpipes/catted midpipes
Tuned on Cobb via Ben Linney
Dodson Racing 66 degrees thermostat
Forge Motorsports 6 piece silicone hose kit

Mines lowering springs
Volk G2 20x10 and 20x11 wheels
Toyo R888 285 and 315 r compound tires
Rays forged aluminum lug nuts
Mines Mooncraft carbon spoiler add-on
Mines front carbon grille
Mines rear bumper carbon inserts
Rear carbon diffuser
OEM JDM clear front/rear sidemarkers
High powered LED treatment throughout the car

This car is putting down 800 wheel horsepower on e85 at 24psi and if you turn off the traction system it'll spin all 4 wheels and get a little sideways. Has a little turbo lag, but once they hit you are sucked into the seat and it doesn't stop until you let off the throttle.

This car is much easier to enjoy because I can actually drive it whenever I want, versus the race car only moving when absolutely necessary. We've changed a lot of things on the car since we got it as it was a little neglected. It was at 700hp before, so with the new injectors, new Cobb hardware, new tuning, etc. we were able to achieve the 800 we're at now.
