Future Plans

Now into planning stages to run a 2.3 Ecoboost engine, intercooler and mild tune. Now in process of ordering a Quicktime bellhousing for use with a T5 transmission modfied and strengthened for 400+ HP. Going from 13" x7" wheels to 15" x 7" or 8" with Hossier slicks. Also plan on larger rear calipers and possibly rotors. Designing a full aero package to be built inhouse.
