Tami says: "I built it. How many chicks can say that? At the track I ran a 12.3 at 112 mph on 18 psi."

We say: A girl on RA1s, that's hot.

This month's winner is Tami Murphy
She'll receive enough Mothers car cleaning goodies to satisfy the most anal, white-glove-wearing, concourse-cruising, flock of show-car-weenies anywhere. Mothers' new FX Line of car care products is among the most sophisticated, state-of-the-art wheel cleaners and waxes available today.

Mods:
GReddy 15G turbocharger, Bosch 440cc/min fuel injectors, Forge 007 diverter valve, custom intercooler and piping, custom turbo manifold, CFM injector adapters, custom downpipe with Magnaflow center-exit exhaust, SCT custom tuning, Prosport oil and boost gauges, Steeda MAF unit with custom wiring, DEI heat shield wrap, relocated battery, Saleen suspension, body kit, and gauges.

Ashley says: "Took a year to build, but it's well worth the effort. 203 whp at 6psi of boost is not a bad start."

We say: Project Focus SVT makes 246 whp at 10 psi of boost. Once we fix the intake manifold, it's on.
