My
5-speed manual car is uniquely fast due to the Eagle Premier PRV engine
swap. I have not tested the new engine and EFI setup on a dyno, but we
estimate that it's getting about 200HP. This page also lists other
upgraded or replaced parts on my car.

All current work is done by Toby Peterson at DeLorean Motor Company in
Bellevue, WA.
Engine upgrade was done by John Lane at
Pacific Rim Automotive, Seattle, WA. John races this engine setup
(with additional enhancements) in his
Volvo rally car, The Fire Breathing Monster. Whoo hoo!
Stuff I'm working on:
- New windshield and dash pad. (Tough waiting on the new pads
being designed by DMC Houston).
- Air-conditioning. I've never bothered to fix the pulley
alignment so the belt stays put and here in Seattle there are only a few
days in the year that it's a boiler. Ha!
- New Door Lock module. Mine seemed to keep draining the
battery. Pulled it until I have Toby put in upgraded one with launchers.
Yes, technically my keyless entry doesn't work now. Unfortunate
side-effect.
- Upgraded stereo so I can plug in my iPhone. Yeah!
- New radio antenna.
- More engine bay bling (braided stainless hose wraps, etc.).
Gotta have fun!
