Fuel and ignition tables are mapped out past 20psi. There are many aftermarket ECU's available for those wanting to convert their carbureted vehicles into fuel injected vehicles. It is very user-friendly and has lots of continuing support through the developer and enthusiasts forums. While cruising through town, he exhaust tone through the downpipe and Magnaflow muffler purrs like a kitten but once you press the throttle to the floor, ou'll awaken a sleeping giant with the roar of a lion with LOTS of acceleration. No matter what type of driver you are, his car will put an ear-to-ear grin on your face every time you drive it. The interior is nice and finished in tan and brown vinyl. There are additional gauges including a boost gauge, ngine Oil Pressure gauge (in addition to the idiot light in the tachometer) and an Exhaust Gas Temperature (EGT) gauge.
Unlike most Speedsters that have a driver's seat that slides forward and backwards only, his Speedster has a power driver's seat that moves, orward, ackward, p, own and tilts fore and aft so you'll be able to find that perfect driving position behind the Nardi steering wheel. Cocoa mats add a nice touch to the floor of the car and the driving lights mounted behind the front grills really help to light up the road ahead of you.
As mentioned before, his Speedster has quite a bit more power than your typical Speedster and when you add more power to a car, t is just as important to add better brakes because 60 to 0mph is just as important if not more important than 0 to 60mph. This Speedster comes to a stop with the assistance of front disc and rear drum brakes and rides on oil-filled front shocks and adjustable rear air shocks. It also comes with a quarter tonneau cover and vinyl top.
