    Paul Jerkatis (PRJPerformance.com) did all the wiring work. I would have never had time to do all that nor the patience.

    What was really neat tho was picking up the car with the factory engine setup and the car started up and ran fine. Having all that
    empty space on either side of the engine was pretty neat looking. Made it look super clean. Made doing the turbo setup a lot easier
    as we did not have to work around so much extra stuff.

    The car is owned by Me and my good friend Sean. I was planning on doing this on my old 98 GTP that I ended up scrapping back during
    the summer. Was gonna just sell all my stuff off. I had the motor/trans/turbo setup already sitting collecting dust. Then Sean said lets get
    together and build a car. So I found the 2dr 2001 gtp in Indiana for $1000 and we got bought it and dropped it off to PRJ that same day,
    and by that night he was already into the wiring of the car. He did an excellent job on it. He said there are some things he would do
    differently if he ever does a job like that again, but so far I think the only issue we had was the MPH gauge didn't work. And our last
    time up there he fixed that.

    We are going to start doing weight reduction here shortly. Get the car to anywhere under 3000lbs hopefully. Offset the weight
    of the cage going in plus sum ... then start work on the front suspension setup and then the fuel cell setup.

    I am hoping by spring time, we should be able to hit 10's with no other motor work done. Just crank the boost up some more if everything
    works out for traction. We HAVE to be in the 1.6x's or better to have the car run worthwhile times.
