SVTPerformance Brings You Highlights From PRI 2012http://www.svtperformance.com/forum...ormance-brings-you-highlights-pri-2012-a.htmlhttp://www.svtperformance.com/forum...ormance-brings-you-highlights-pri-2012-a.htmlhttp://www.svtperformance.com/forum...ormance-brings-you-highlights-pri-2012-a.htmlhttp://www.svtperformance.com/forum...ormance-brings-you-highlights-pri-2012-a.html
http://www.svtperformance.com/forum...ormance-brings-you-highlights-pri-2012-a.htmlIf you're a car aficionado and strive to produce prodigious power numbers you have to love this time of year. On the heels of SEMA and after a week of traveling around SoCal gathering material for future articles (you'll be seeing those roll out in early 2013) SVTP makes its annual pilgrimage to Orlando, FL for the 2012 edition of the Performance Racing Industry ("PRI") tradeshow. For those of you not familiar with PRI, think of it as SEMA without all the bling (or the ability to walk down the street chugging a bottle of party liquor like it's a bottle of water with impunity). PRI is the industry show for those who make, sell, and supply the hardware for hardcore go-fast parts. It's basically Candyland for gear heads.
This year several SVTP Vendors either had displays (such as Livernois Motorsports, VMP Tuning, Magnuson Superchargers, and American Racing Headers) or were in attendance (such as Lethal Performance, Team Beefcake, BBR, MGW, American Muscle AED, BAS, and KEM Tuning). Ford Racing had a great display featuring tons of new parts that will be available in 2013. We gather the best of our pics (we took over 1,000) here in this thread so you can get an idea for how awesome this show really is. We have over 400 pics up on the site for you guys. You can get to all of them by clicking the links at the bottom of this post.
SVTP vendor Magnuson Superchargers had a display showing off a few of their impressive power-adders.
Fluidyne had their brand new Boss 302R radiator on display.
SVTP Vendor Livernois Motorsports had lots of crate engines on display. This 5.0 comes stuffed with goodies.
Livernois is the undisputed leader in the EcoBoost aftermarket. This 3.5L shortblock is their latest offering.
They even had a few parts there just to show off their machining capabilities.
Think porting this 3.5L EcoBoost head will improve flow much?
For you Raptor owners Livernois has a 6.6L stroker engine for you.
Livernois said their EcoBoost tuning packages has been receiving great reviews from customers and selling great.
For high-RPM uses Livernois claims its 6.2L rocker-shaft braces add substantial durability to ford's big gas motor.
If you're serious about drag racing Weld Racing has the wheels for you.
Let's hope I never put a Focus ST on its side like this.
Ford Racing had a wall full of Focus ST upgrades.
ST owners may like this new exhaust. It's quality looked great.
I suspect the Focus ST coil-over kit from FRPP will be very popular.
Eibach manufactures them in the US for FRPP.
Ford Racing has a cooling fan upgrade for S-197 Mustangs.
To make life easier for those installing FRPPs FR3 suspension on your S-197 Mustang you can now order it with the front struts pre-assembled. You'll no long have to find a spring compressor to complete the install.
I know a few guys with ealier GT500s who are waiting on this 6- Piston Brembo brake kit with 15-inch two-piece rotors.
Here's the info. Dropping 10lbs will be nice.
These BBS Boss 302S wheels are sick. I could see a set of the on the SVTP GT in the future.
CPe had their Ford fuel system components on display.
If you have some engines to rebuild you might want to look into getting one of these.
I'm pretty sure this is something that Ironman uses.
This fabrication table from Trick Tools is awesome.
Whiteline suspension was showing off its full Mustang suspension system. Word is that it's available from Lethal Performance.
AFR is bringing modern composite intake manifolds to old-school engines.
I really want a SuperFlow Dyno.
This was easily my favorite car at the show. I wish cars still had this kind of style.
It was so clean.
Anyone need an F-650?
45 seconds in this thing is as good as a 10 minute shower.
Jon Kaase Boss motor, I so want one of these.
6.7L Cummins block, beefy.
This tensioner setup on this Whipple powered Chevy is trick.
The SVTP GT really needs this 8-Rib belt conversion from Innovators West.
Aluminum block Boss 520, the thing dreams are made of.
Full billet engine blocks seem to be getting more popular.
You'd probably have a bin of chips like this after machining one.
Something doesn't seem quite right here.
SLA rapid prototyping machines continue to lower in price, making it much easier for crafty entrepreneurs to bring their products to market.
These Melling oil pumps are examples of what you can make with an SLA machine.
Every shop needs one of these.
Aeromotive has a new fuel hat for 2010-2013 Mustangs.
Manley had a huge piston display.
The Original Rat Trap, awesome.
So sick.
The stages of machining a camshaft.
You never know who will show up at PRI.
Kooks had their wicked dragster with them.
The more I see Airaid's carbon fiber Mustang intake the more I like it.
Royal Purple was busy informing buyers and attendees about their new products, including their new fuel system cleaner.
This would probably be a hit in the SVTP gun porn thread.
Race spec Dodge Viper.
The Mopar 572 Hemi is a huge engine. It has to weigh a ton.
Yes, a 7 year old girl drives this mini-monster truck.
SCT had a great reception for all of its dealers and a few select friends.
I'm disturbed by how turned on I am by this.
Kooks had a massive display.
A couple Turbonetics turbos probably wake this Porsche up a little.
Anyone need some forged diesel connecting rods? Carrillo can help you out.
After walking the show all day I was about as hungry as this guy.
SVTP Vendor VMP Tuning had its new TVS based blowers on display.
These helmets were priced at $15. That seems legit.
Mahle was showing off some of its diesel pistons.
Billet compressor wheels apparently come in various sizes.
SVTP Vendor American Racing Headers had a great display.
ARH's headers are very popular with Raptor owners.
Anyone interested in a twin-turbo GT500?
With a billet plenum?
FRPP has a new shortblock that should interest lots of SVTP members. It's a 4.6L based 5.0L stroker aluminum engine.
Ford Racing calls it the 46X. I call it perfect for my DD Explorer.
These Borg Warner turbos are now the world standard for OEM quality and performance.
VMP Tuning had there mobile dynojet with them.
This combo should make decent power.
This looks perfect for running to the grocery store.
Yeah, there's a few things to see here.
Magnuson has a new supercharger for 3.8L Jeep Wrangler owners.
The Driveshaft Shop can help you with your driveline needs.
5.0 editors Steve Turner and KJ Jones. I'm sure something devious in the works here.
Premier clutch manufacturer McLeod was in attendance.
McLeod's RXT twin-disc clutch for the MT-82 transmission goes a long way towards making that trans a lot more pleasant to drive.
My theory is that Procharger puts these blowers under glass to protect them from drool.
Livernois has some awesome porting options for modular heads.
The new Ford Fusion NASCAR.
The stages of machining a forged I-beam connecting rod, brought to you by Manley.
If you're looking to install a 5.0L Coyote in a Fox body Kooks has some long tube headers to get the most out of your swap.
Word is VMP got 800RWHP out of this Boss 302 with their TVS blower kit.
Precision Turbos had a nice display so you could fondle their billet wheels.
I know it's a Chevy, but I'd drive it.
ARH basically built a tower of win.
I need this driving simulator, NOWWW!!!!
Yes, that is a Wankel powered trike.
SVTP loves free beer.
Friend of the site Arrington Performance had a display front and center in the Mopar booth.
