Originally dubbed Project Mad Rabbit This 2007 Rabbit  has been a fun project that we are really looking forward to completeing. This car was previously an SCCA SSC car which besides the cage meant that it was virtually stock. Over the last two months, we have slowly been transforming it and trying out different setups. Currently it has the following modifications:

H&R Front and Rear Swaybars
BSH Sway Bar End Links
JIC Cross Competition Coilovers
United Motorsport Short Runner Intake
Bluewater Performance Stage 1 Flex Fuel Tune
Eurojet Header
Eurojet Exhaust
Full 6-point Race Cage
Thunderbunny Rear Bumper
Thunderbunny Side Skirts
Votex Lower Front Lip
Bluewater Battery Relocation Kit
Ported and Polished Head

We plan on dynoing the current setup and we are hoping for around 220whp which would make it the highest HP NA Rabbit and as soon as we are finished at the dyno we are starting stage 2 of the transformation.

Stage 2 will consist of
Integrated Engineering Rods
JE 8.5:1cr Pistons
Precision 6765 Billet turbine Ball Bearing Turbo
3" Downpipe
Custom Cams
Bluewater Performance Billet Valve Cover
Custom Turbo Manifold
Custom Stainless intercooler Piping
Treadstone Front Mount Intercooler
Bora 4 Motion Drivetrain
Peloquin Diff
08 Golf R32 Rear AWD Swap
Sparco Pro ADV Race Seats
Sparco 5 Point Harnesses
Wheels and Tires TBD

Ultimately the goal for this car is to be ready in time to go out to Bonneville in September with our turbo R and then compete in NASA sanctioned racing events and possibly the Eurotuner GP.
We have hp goals of around the 600hp-700hp range and are building it to rev all the way to 10k!! which will make this thing amazing to drive and hear!

Update 6-30-2011

Thanks for all of the comments. We are working on getting the car put back together that way we can get it up on the dyno. So far we are at 260lbs of total removed weight. We still though have most of the HVAC system to remove, a couple of airbags, some sheet metal out of the doors, the glass (which will be replaced with lexan), wiring, and other small bits here and there. The biggest hurdle to overcome is going to be trying to remove the
actual A/C compressor. I am not sure how we are going to tackle it but
we will figure it out soon here. It would be nice though if another
company has already developed a setup for the A/C delete and if anyone
knows please let us know otherwise we will engineer something ourselves.

Well here is the progress for the seat mount which took forever.

Just a little tease. Also these will be available for sale very soon. T4 turbo manifolds. it has a V-band flange for MVR 44mm Tial wastegates.

Ok so first off I want to apologize for the lack of updates. We had
promised Eurotuner that we would let them show updates in their magazine
before updating this thread but I have a ton of pics to show and
hopefully I can answer any questions people might have so here goes.
