The Beast is back....


I'm breaking it in so I'm avoiding going over 3000 rpm...its hard guys...One thing it sounds like I'm in a A10 Thunderbolt tankbuster shooting it's gattling gun when I get over 2500rpm. It sounds scary!

I'll try and post a video and sound clip once I figure out how to do it...

I'd like to thank the people most responsible for getting the Beast back in running shape:

PTE: Pat your patience, knowledge, and generosity was more than I could ask for...Extend my appreciation to Butch for me.

C2Design: Chris and Andrew...you guys were great! Your customer service and expertise was top notch.

Do you mind me asking how much you spent on all of the CF under the hood? Or how much it would all normally cost?

You can PM Vrus (victor @ VRP) for current amounts...to be honest with you I'd have to look at my invoices to be really sure. I have the weird ability to have no concept of buyers remorse or remembering what I paid for stuff...I know it was a lot but the aesthetic enhancement was worth it but the airbox performance enhancement escapes me (do a search)...it just looks cool to me.

I'll try to look up my invoices and PM you if I find them.

It was custom fabricated from ABS plastic and a water transfer process to imitate the wood trim.
