My Toyota IQ-R1 project car at the recent Lamborghini Broward show.

There are some amazing Supercars on display.

I would love to own one but for now my little IQ will have to do.

First start up with the new Exhaust system

Here is a short video showing the new larger 2.5" exhaust system and how it sounds at low revs. 

There is some debris from inside that comes out from sealing the joints during welding. 

It sounds a lot nicer when I am driving  and take it up to around 13,000 rpm in each gear.

The new setup with the improved  gradual smooth transition to the rear end cans was well worth the work

Short video from Sunday driving to the Car show

On the way to the Supercar Saturday show, met a couple of guys driving a McLaren and a Honda NSX ! great show, the IQ is a real head turner..

managed to take the revs up to about 1000rmp for the first time, the sound of the engine is amazing, although I may have to add a resonator to tone it down just a bit.

Thanks!

20 Minute video showing Build and driving shots.

I took a drive out to a local Supercar show to see what sort of response I got from some car enthusiasts. 

Lots of great feedback and people were buzzing around the IQ all day, so the little IQ was in with the high end supercars and still managed to hold its own.

The show was held on a Saturday on public roads so no speed limits were broken... 

The beginning shows some build shots that arte also on the site, and then there is some in car footage from my Go-pro..

Enjoy!

Here are some some pretty cool videos of the Yamaha R1
and some Motorcycle engined cars that are just amazing..

There are hundreds of videos of motorcycle engined cars all over the Web.

The Italian Proto P2 race cars are amazing to watch, this is what inspired me to build my own tamed down version.

Also shown are some Dyno and high speed video of the Yamaha R1, the same engine that now powers my IQ.

I would love to produce a road legal version of this car..

So if there are any investors out there get in touch with me and lets make it happen.
