This July 4th weekend we set out to race the ADRL Independence Drags IV, but Mother Nature had other plans. After once again grabbing the #1 qualifying position in XTF, the steady rain moved in, and the race was eventually called off and postponed. The event will be completed at the ADRL Hardee’s Gateway Drags III on August 7-8 at Gateway International Raceway in Madison, IL, just outside of St. Louis. The completion of final eliminations of the Independence Drags will take place on Friday, with the Gateway Drags to be completed the next day.

During a recent trip to my hometown of Punta Gorda, I took a few hours to checkout a new attraction generating some buzz, Muscle Car City. Over the past 40 years.Rick Treworgy had assembled one of the largest private collections of cars. After running out of space at various warehouses the cars were scattered across, he decided to purchase an abandoned Walmart and bring his collection into the public eye, and Muscle Car City was born. The collection includes at least one Corvette from 1954-1975, these aren’t run of the mill Vettes either,most are equipped with 427s, manual transmissions and other rare options. The collection isn’t limited to just Corvettes, there are plenty of other 60-70s GM products, assorted hot rods, modern muscle, and even some retro rods sporting modern creature comforts while maintaing a vintage look. If you’re an automotive fan visiting Southwest Florida I suggest blocking off a few hours to check out this one of a kind collection, it’s worth every bit of the $12.50 admission fee.

Check out the gains of the Titan Motorsports (TMS) converter vs. the Precision Industries (PI) converter. This test was conducted by Alpha at Induction Performance on a stock bottom end, stock head, with HKS 264 camshafts, HKS exhaust manifold, Turbonetics T72 turbocharger, Blitz front mount intercooler, 3″ downpipe, 3″ exhaust, Precision 1000cc fuel injectors, Bosch 044 in-tank fuel pumps (2), AEM Twin-Fire ignition amplifier, Boost Logic built Toyota automatic transmission on E85 with an AEM EMS tuned by Alpha.

We think the results speak for themselves, as many people have been quite satisfied with these new converters. The TMS converters are available in 3200, 3500, and 3800 rpm stall speeds.

This past weekend some of the Titan crew made a trip over to Tampa to check out the Ultra Evolution Car Show. The show was a good time and was definitely a success, with over 150 registered cars in attendance. Nikki Contenti was on hand to pass out some goodies, and managed to snap a few sweet shots. Here’s a few pics from the show:

Evolution Motorsports chose Titan Motorsports as the official Orlando stop for their East Coast Summer Tour. After spending a few days in South Florida, the EvoMS crew trucked up the turnpike in their toterhome carrying the EVT650 Porsche 997.2 PDK, EVOT1200 Porsche 997.1, and Gumpert Apollo super car. Todd Zuccone and Matt Carrick kicked off the visit with a seminar for our employees on the history of Evo and their commitment to building only the highest quality Porsche products on the market. We were then treated to a first hand look at some of the great vehicles put together at Evolutions Arizona facility and the precision engineering in their complete tuning packages. I personally enjoyed the EVT650 car, I’ve never been a big fan of automatic sports cars, however the PDK system combined with the additional horsepower provided by Evo upgrade package made for a very fast, responsive car that drove better than stock.

Titan Motorsports is proud to join the Evolution Motorsports Dealer network, and soon will be a fully equipped EvoMSit dealer, capable of flashing most ECU’s in house from Porsche to Ferrari to Mini and everything in between. We will be offering their complete line of tuning packages and can install any of their power packages available for Porsche vehicles, both in the United States, and abroad. For more information on having your vehicle equipped with Evolution Motorsports parts or tuned with EvoMSit, please contact one of our specialists at 407-277-8423.

• 54mm inducer, 70mm exducer
• B compressor cover
• 2 5/8” inlet, 1 3/4” outlet

When Utah based tuner Turbo Lab decided to host a “Dyno War” dyno competition, Supra owner Cody Phillips decided he was up for the challenge. There were many strong cars competing in the event, including a Heffner built twin turbo Viper. The Viper laid down an impressive 1208 rwhp, but never really realized what he was going up against. A MKIV Supra is always a force to be reckoned with, especially one with Titan 3.4L stroker motor. Cody ended up putting down 1297 on boost (35psi) and 1497 on spray (37psi), easily beating out the Viper. Congrats on the win Cody!
