isnt that the friggin truth brother...I had my 68 Nova with LT1 and a 4:56 rear end running 12:20's and I was happy as a pig in shit...LOL...this is crazy...shit a 13 second street car was actually considered fast.Im a guy from the musclecar 60s & 70s that had Roadrunners., Dodge Darts , Camaros and Mustangs . That I was very happy with running low 14s around 105 MPH
. To have a maverick running 12s is so unreal
. Look out Mustang G T s . Keep up the great work.

E30 is a mix of e85 and 91 octane.all this a big surprise to me-own a bone stock EB AWD--what is E30 tune? what mods made to get the quarter in 12s?? I was a big muscle car guy back in the day-mostly 442s
You and John (if I'm not mistaken his name) are my heroes, you two guys really took the weight on your shoulders with the way you guys took a totally new plataform and risking your own vehicles paved the way. By no means I gonna be able to do it in any near future, but thanks to you guys if i later decided to do it we have a road map to follow.E30 is a mix of e85 and 91 octane.
Build is nothing out of the ordinary besides the 2.3 swap Intake, Intercooler, turbo upgrade, 3 inch exhaust from turbo back and tune.
When you say 2.3 swap, do you mean the entire 2.3 engine or just the intake, intercooler, turbo, exhaust and tune put on the existing 2.0?Build is nothing out of the ordinary besides the 2.3 swap Intake, Intercooler, turbo upgrade, 3 inch exhaust from turbo back and tune.
From what I've read, and seat of the pants feel, a stock EB and stock Hybrid are remarkably similar in the 0-60 range.

I mean ordinary for any turbo car. Other than the engine swap, Intake, exhaust, turbo, intercooler, and tune. I didn’t discover anything new."nothing out of the ordinary"?? so I guess at least $5K?? and how much and where do you get E30 gas??
I appreciate the words but calling us “Heros” is an insult to those in the military serving out country, firemen, police officers, teachers, etc. Those are real heros. Don’t know about John, but I’m just a knuckle head with a car obsession.You and John (if I'm not mistaken his name) are my heroes, you two guys really took the weight on your shoulders with the way you guys took a totally new plataform and risking your own vehicles paved the way.
