I think your licence plate should read SMAUG

Nice little double entendre' for the fire breathing dragon and a subtle middle finger to the enviro wackos who hate cars like this.

Just and awesome effort Tim!

I was going to suggest a Weldon pump as well. They have a big electric one that is good for like 1800HP on gas or 900 on alcohol\methanol D2035-A. I remember them having another one that was 2400 on gas and 1200 on meth but I don't see it anymore. Come to think of it, that must have been the mechanical one.

The mechanical would be a good way to go; no risk of pump motor going bad. The belt can go though if you do it belt driven, cog belt that is I am sure you could have come up with something to hard mount that thing to your crank pulley but with the turbos right there, it might be a bit tough. hehehe

It's running too rich. Your tuner should lean it out a little for more power

rofl, I did that one year when I owned my red RX-7. Santa costume and all. I was doing it for a family that has a Santa come to their house for the kids every year; people enjoyed the "sleigh".
