Brutal Bugeye




Since Superlap earlier this year, the need for speed has increased rapidaly. One car that has progresively been developed is this 2001 bugeye, It went from a mild street car to Obsene race car in a short period of time, and since Superlap it has received some serious touches. Sitting in the engine compartment is a built 2.5L, with the right piston and rod combination, and billet crank the bottom end is strong, and with the case receiving the right treatment it will be happy to take the boost. The top end has also been improved with some BC 280 deg cams, and extensive porting, it was just built with one thing in mind. Power is not a problem, as this engine is been force fed by a Garret GT37/88 Early stages of tuning have since some great results, 387kw, at 21 psi, and still running on pump fuel. With a touch of ethanol to come, and some aggressive tuning, traction is appearing to be a problem. Keep an eye out as we will go into further detail later.
