The car is sponsored now, so that helps a lot. As of right now I'm getting a tune, upgrading the fuel system, replacing the fuel injectors to 2000cc after doing baselines with the 1000cc, updating the boost controller and some other electronics, brakes, and clutch to the OS Giken stage 3.
Oh yeah throwing out the two piece drive shaft to a one aluminum piece. That's about it so far.

Do people strive for power for these cars?
A old update
Car made over 800whp at 20 pounds but had boost creep due to a bad angle of the wg.
Redid the manifold, down pipe, and a whole bunch of other stuff.
Car is back in the shop to get it retuned without the boost creep issue and bad place of the wg.
The car was fun to drive, for the one day I had to drive it.
Keep everyone posted.

It was a chain of events type of situation.
After a lot of time making the top mount and when it was completed, a buddy of mine happen to be at an event with UpRev. Two years after that, I called and asked if I could get a tune from them again, we set up a time to do it, and the owner told Omar if I wanted to get this build sponsored.
It was never my intent to get sponsored but it sort of happened. Can't complain.

This is a bit outdated but it's the latest dyno for the car. The car was slipping on the dyno and couldn't raise the boost up due to spinning. Going to do a hub dyno sometime in Jan.
I have no idea if anyone keeps up with this build but for those who do, here ya go.

Amazing numbers! If the AFRs from that dyno are correct then it looks like some richening between 100-130mph should yield a better midrange. Pretty crazy to see the stock manifold holding 28+ psi
