Yeah that's going to be killer in a straight line.



That will be all it's good for though.

That is nearly the stupidest thing I have seen in a car. That guy will be old by the time that turbo spools up, imagine hitting boost midway round a corner . . . tum te tum . . . . yawn . . . . . pshhhhhohmygodimgoingofastCRASH!!!!!

You think so? It seems like he'll have PLENTY of exhaust gas to spool that bad boy up.

Whats more impressive is a car with a bone stock 120,000 mile LS1 with a turbo kit bolted up to it making 775hp and 865ft lb tq at the tires.



Stock Formula with Turbo kit



I don't think domestic guys shun turbos in general. A lot of the fastest guys in domestic racing classes that allow power adders use turbos (unless restricted).

Look at the front tires... I think the turning is pretty much limited to doing a U turn at the end of the track.. its called drag racing
