The real reason I wanted to make this was to find out the weight of my Sandcar. Gen. 3 Funco with Outfront 2.5 Subi. I know there are a handful of similar set ups out there as well as the knowledge. 
But now I am curious how many of you out there know your power and weight of your cars. lets see 'em!

I’m not sure how much my gen 3 weighs but I just had it dyno tuned at outfront. It made 277hp to the tire which John said was 417 hp to the flywheel. 15 pounds of boost on 110 race gas. 
 

2.5 SOHC STI block. Garret turbo not sure what size (the outfront special)

We keep our weight # lower than our hp # to make things more interesting, guess that’s why I have about a 3 second attention span though 

 
Elite dual sport. I weigh in right at 3k lbs. Redline LS1 twin turbo, 700HP at the wheels. Absolute blast to drive and pulls the wheels up easily if i want it too

Always blown away at how much power actually hits the ground "after taxes". 

Good looking car! You have a few things on yours I have been wanting to do to mine.

DUDE! nice power/weight! sounds like a dune weapon. Is that a 4 seater?? If so, Im even more impressed your under 2k lbs!

😍 beautiful car. looks like a ripper for sure. How does it navigate the small tricky stuff? 

 
Grant said around 2800 or less. 858 horse pressures to the wheel @ 11lb of boost. It feels like enough.

2 seat beam car, 1350lbs/255whp courtesy of a Nissan SR20DET at 12psi.  Time for a rebuild after 14 seasons on a junkyard motor.  Still runs great but is starting to pressurize the crankcase with blowby.
