Fiat -- GONE
Ovalholio -- GONE

Love it!

6.09 and 123 mph starting in 2`nd gear and missing a gearshift. With only 24 psi of boost down from 42 psi.

This will be one fast car for sure!

I thought it sounded like a sick V8 until I saw this version-

I had the pleasure of meeting Mike Kristen and his crew at Mike's shop in Penrith, Australia (Custom Bugs & Buses) a couple of years ago. Here is some related text and photos:

Mike and the bunch at his place were great. I spent a few hours at CBB checking out the cars and talking to Mike, Ryan, Matt, Chris, Russell, and others - wish I'd have had a lot more time there, as hanging out with the Late Shifters was way cool. Thanks, guys!

If I recall everything correctly, Mike's Ghia is running a methanol injected, twin Autorotor blown, Component Development headed, 2.7 liter motor with a Mendeola behind it. The car was purchased, incomplete, from Puerto Rico where used to have a crazy, clown-themed "Xtreme" paint scheme. Mike and his guys have done a ton of work on the car to bring it to the point that it is now, and it shows.

More stories and pics in my AU trip report in this thread.
