While I love the idea of a TR with absolutely devistating power (as Norwood is famed for producing) I hope he re-locates those hose-clamped rubber piping a little furthur from the very hot hot post-turbo exhaust! :P Fabricated pipes look very cool, I say Challenge-grille material is in order (don't most TRs have a perforated grille there already? <searching>) Best! Ben. Best! Ben. |

I don't know that what you're seeing here is the 'as delivered' rear view, the car is still being tuned. It has about 30 'post turbo' miles on it and they're going to be fine tuning it before it's delivered. The Carmack 1000hp car is also there now, and it DOES have the exposed turbos. |

355 challenge type grille I say. May also need wider tires (oh ya). Boxer 12 turbo...that is a nice TR...wonder how she handles. |

Awesome!!How much does this upgrade cost and do you have performance figures? Will the grille treatment be modified (or is it modified already) to accomodate the changes? |

This is the Norwood turbo....they're figuring about 800hp. It's supposed to go to the dyno in the near future. They have a 512TR in the shop getting the same treatment. |
