Sadly, it's not. It's just the radiator. TT stands for Track Toy.

Wow, the styling on that Griggs car is fantastic. The unpainted lip and black wheels

Haha, I thought so too. But when that car was moving I was waiting to hear spooling and a BOV. Nothing happened; so I was like, yo? Then I googled the car so I can see some pics of the car. And found out what TT meant. They also have an RT. Race Toy that looks the same. It just has more components.

should start a thread with pics of each one, or someone could go back and edit the post so that each name is a link to a pic of one.... but that would mean collecting pics of each different model...

Actually it is an intercooler.

That particular car is equipped with a prototype Paxton Novi 2200R Supercharger with over-running clutch and intercooler. It makes 547HP and 503lb/ft of torque.

We are still looking into turbo systems for this car, which we would prefer actually .But there are no systems currently available with a C.A.R.B. approval.

Garrett has and twin turbo system coming out but it will never be C.A.R.B. approved. Turbonetics is already working on C.A.R.B. approval for their single turbo system. It would make 550HP and 600lb/ft of torque!! Can't wait.

Sorry man no harm intended.

That car is not for sale, it is the prototype for a run of cars that we are building. If you are in the area, on Friday. Come by Infineon around 2:30PM.

I'll take you for a couple of hot laps.

Same goes for anyone in the area that can make it.

Colin

If the Paxton makes 547hp, i'd just stick with that. I bet there is a lot more room to grow.

Actually having 100 more lb/ft of torque is very desirable. Thats huge. It puts it at the near peak for a stock 3 valve. They're usually done about 650HP you'll start breaking connecting rods after that.
