I believe the number was in the 400-500# range.

Oddly enough I was just wondering to myself where this car ended up. I also wondered what happened to the V10 viper swapped one too, let's see if it shows up for sale again.

does it work like this?

oem appx weight: 3,230
oem hp: 330

3,230 / 330 = 9.79

appx 400 lbs weight savings
400 / 9.79 = 41

appx 41 hp gain @ 400 lbs weight savings?

is this an approximate hp "increase"??

Finders, keepers, Dave. You know what must be done.

It's a shame that the molds for the body panels were destroyed in a fire years ago. I ran into TC Kline at Road Atlanta a couple years ago. Great guy and obviously a wealth of information. He liked my carbon fiber headlight blanks and asked for a pair. How do you say no to TC Kline?...so I made a pair and sent them to him for a track car he was building.

Very cool. Not sure about the orange though, but nothing a wrap couldn’t fix I guess. The weight savings must just turn the coupe into a screamer. Was this the only coupe made?

It's one of one.

It seems kind of like a steal if you can live with the track oriented suspension set up and the aesthetics. It does look a bit fast and furious for my taste. Is anyone here considering picking it up?

Reached out to EAG. I guess the car sold a few years ago so no longer available.
