Thad Norman of HyperCar Development!

This week we welcome Thad Norman from Hypercar Development joins us to talk about their insane 3 turbo compound McLarens.  Matt drove one of their cars several months back and came away thoroughly impressed.  Beyond McLaren's Thad shares a lot of knowledge on how warranties are affected by ECU tuning, the ins-and-outs of dyno accuracy and just how modular the McLaren lineup is.

Thad Norman (Hypercar Development, Triple-turbo McLarens!)

Thad Norman teamed up with a long-time friend, Safa Yousef, with aspirations to turn up the performance on the McLaren cars. Safa came from a racing background in both cars and motorcycles, while Thad came from an engineering and automation background. Together, they knew they could push the limits of what is capable with a factory car. They weren’t shooting for straight line performance, but were more focused on all around improvements. Thad and Safa had to seek outside funding to get the business going and had to try several different avenues before finding investors willing to put money into this sort of business. After securing funding, they purchased a 12C and began development for the next 2 years. The result was the 800hp package and cooling kit. They have since gone on to develop a 1000hp option and a 1200hp option that utilizes their globally-patented tri-boost technology. They are developing even more parts to step the power up to 1500hp.
