We are building an unlimited class time attack car. In order to do things properly you need to acid dip and strip the chassis then seam weld it. From there you can do your cage work etc. We have done this before.

How do you store all the parts? In separate containers, but I guess you guys know what everything is, lol?

Hope there isnt any leftovers.

lol we have 35 employees at AMS.

Just in fabrication we have 12 people, we are big but we need to be especially now that we are working on the N54

The real time to tear the car down was 16 hours by Ivan Phipps our special projects technician.

Wouldn't it be easier and possibly cheaper to go to the manufacturer and buy a complete frame and work from there?

Are you guys going to do something along the lines that FP did and take our stock turbos and modify them to be stock to the untrained eye but get another extra 100whp?

We will be working with FP on some upgraded stock turbos but also developing a larger single turbo kit using Garrett GT series turbos like the GT30R, GT35R, AMS 850R etc.
