A Twin-Turbo Trans Am Built For the Street
A while back, we heard of a twin-turbo Trans Am that was being built near us, and just as quickly, we heard that it was blown up. The lesson we can all learn from Ryan Hawkins of Cottage Grove, Minnesota, is that when you go big, you’re bound to find virtually every weak point. When Ryan said he put his car back together for the millionth time, we rushed over to take some photos.
To be fair, this isn’t really a knock on Ryan—he’s built quite the beast. At just less than 1,200 ponies to the rear wheels, lots of parts are put under a ton of stress. Ryan joked that the car has undergone quite a few changes since he purchased it on Valentine’s Day 2005.
