Well I had hoped to have the work done for the 3rd but it is a better thing to have work done right then quick. Dave and Karl are going to be collaborating on my build and yep you guessed it.. twin screw supercharger with all the powder coated B5 trimmings, unique strut tower brace front and RE rear brace, headers mids and cats, lowered suspension, and of course dyno tunning. Allot of the parts are being made for my build and the machining will take about 3 weeks and the install and tune about 3 to 4 days est but they will have the car till they are happy with the results. We are shooting for low to mid 600's rwh. I may need to cam the car to get there etc we will work on it. I have been going over and over the details of what I wanted to do with the car for some time and you all have been so helpful in both suggestion and referral thank you it looks to be a great time and a wicked SuperBee as a result. I will keep you all posted on progress. I went this route rather then the 426 Stroker alone or with a SC because of the flexability with how far I want to go, but you never know where a build will take you  |

Sean never could keep a secret long. He is so excited about the mods, they are already in the works. Custom machining of some of the parts is happening, and everything is ordered. He wishes it was already done, but will have to wait. He is learning about patience. Not a strong point. Maybe that is why I got a challenger so fast. He thinks I drive like a wuss, but he can really make it roar.

Looks like my car is going into Hinkley RS this comming Monday. Karl talked to Dave and said the S/C came out really nice from powder coat, and the other parts being machined for my build should be in this week. I am really excited to see it myself. I think the 6 pounds of boost and the Dyno tune will make for a beast of a Bee. We are also dropping the car I believe 1.5 inches. I am still waiting for the last 2 pieces on my interior from BT and the hood and trunk liners from dodge X fingers this week as well.

Wow. That is going to be a beast! are you sure you want to do the drop? I know several people that have dropped it and have now raised them back up. Just something to think about.
Now I'm going to go find out WTH is taking so long to do the jeep!

Your going to be low low low. I was looking at you and richards r/t thats lowered, your front ends were about the same height. If you go 1.5inches lower your going to be on the ground lol It will look badass though.

Going to be a beast for sure. Cant wait to see it all done! What PSI are you planning on running? IMHO, I would reconsider the springs and lowering it and put that money towards some much needed upgraded halfshafts & LSD setup. I know many folks have stated our halfshafts cant handle anything more than 450-475RWHP safely without snapping halfshafts.
