I do not own this van, I wish I do. I am selling it for a very close friend, Tylor. If you are interested in this Van, let me know and I will forward his phone number.

SOLD
If you've been to the Midnight Mayhem in Las Vegas 2 years back, you may have seen this van beating the ZR1 Corvette, a few Evo's, STi's, Mustangs and F-bodies. One night it was there with car seats on the back because it was transporting kids in the morning and we forgot to remove them lol. If you don't believe me, there is a video below.

The Build
It was carefully planned and designed by Tyler and my friend Jon (1320) to be the ultimate daily driving sleeper. It took them 1 year to build it, they sweated over all the little details to make sure this is a reliable van for Tyler's wife. The end result is a Van that anybody can drive, turn, and stop safely but with a hero mode. The hero mode is, thanks to all wheel drive, turbo, and perfect stall, this Van can launch out of the hole with 17psi without any wheel spin on regular street tires by anyone.

Work done:
72 MM Turbonetics Turbo with 1.00 AR Divided Housing
Quick Spool valve and electric exhaust cut out
Cummins Intercooler
Devils Own water / meth injection
Ceramic Piston coating and DEI Lava Wrap on all pipes
50 MM Waist Gate
Huge Trans Cooler and two radiators for coolant: never hot ever
5.3 WIth 317 Heads for near 9.0:1 Compression Ratio
Corvette LS6 CAM
ARP Head Studs
Built 4L80E From Rossler with PI 3000 Stall triple lock up (The tranny alone costs $6,500, without it, the original transmission could not have handle the power)
14 inch power slott brakes
Hawk pads
285/45/20 Tires
1 1/8 inch sway bar in rear (came with nothing)
KYB Mono Max Shocks
Electric Cutout
This van can be nice and mellow with the Electric Cutout closed, with the low boost setting it can be a very comfortable 500hp van. With the electric cutout opened, the van gets angry, boost goes to 17psi, and we start winning races no 6300lbs van should.
This AWD van goes, stops and steers:

Performance
60 Foot times 1.8
1/8 mile is 8.2
1/4 mile is 12.80
at 17 psi and 6300 pounds in Vegas


20,000 boosted miles everything works except AC.
(new compressor but needs charged)

 

God, I wish I had a use for this thing. I love it. Awesome.




EDIT: Maybe you should just sell this across the border, as a van to transport illegals.? Perfect setup.

 

LMFAO!!!!!!


Man i love this van!!!!! Bieng a van owner myself there is just something so cool about this sleeper!!!!

GLWS !

 

Thats so awesome! lol

What was the MPH on the fastest run? Just curious.

 

Still think you should put a turbo on yours LOL



GLWS that thing is badass.

 

this would be the perfect van for a heist!

 

To the top, this van costs more than $40K to build. Somebody is getting a great deal.

 

Not sure I see $40k worth there. I got my 6,015 lb SUV to run 12.5 for about 8 grand.

 

I am really glad you got your truck to do 12.5. But our goals are different. We want to break into 12 seconds at DA of 4000 feet+ and 115 degree heat in summer all day long, on the street. Much money is spent on making it work in such heat and making sure the AWD system is up to the stress of repeated launches.

Vegas stripe is around 2200 ft above sea level, our bad air is around DA of 4000 ft in the summer time, we get 100 degrees of heat at night and 110+ degrees day time from Jun to September. It is not uncommon for Sea Level cars to loose .6 to 1 seconds up here. Also, the video above shows how much prep the track gets, it is very slick. The ZR1 absolutely cannot get traction, it was just spinning the tires.

Here is the very rough breakdown of the costs, some he paid more because it he was the first to order the parts for the van, others we were able to get it for cheap.
