Leash Electronics is turning a 2013 Mazdaspeed3 into a X275 dragster. Power will be generated by a 427 ci LSx V8 featuring Trickflow 245 heads, Holley Dominator EFI, and a GT5518 88 mm turbocharger. The builder says it should be good for 4.60’s with the goal of 4.50’s. Another interesting thing the builder mentioned was the length of the car is very close to a Foxbody (2 inches longer and 1 inch narrower).
