Man - you guys are brutal...
Ok, so the spelling isn't great. But someone took some time and actually made a pretty cool car. Is it for everyone, no - but I've seen much worse examples. If nothing else it is unique.

I wouldn't even say its poorly executed. A blow-through AFM works for low-boost setups. He swapped to a turbo engine, and he even intercooled it!

It is definitely unique. Not sure I'm loving the air filter location. Thing is, he has clearly spent a LOT of time and money on this build and can't be bothered to spell check. Seems weird to me but maybe I'm just too old now and still have this weird notion of using the Language as it was taught to me. Damn I'm getting crusty.

WOW, just WOW... Someone needs to go hands on on the fine piece of automotive engineering...

I am particularly interested in the TORBO CHARGER...

worse examples, like the legendary rear mount turbo with pvc plumbing guy on pelican...


the nice thing is it wouldnt take much to make this setup work even better. put a straight pipe where the afm is now, put a pipe off the sc inlet to the fender or something with the afm in there and it'd work even better

Looks okay. I don't like the Testorosa side vents. But the supercharger is pretty cool.
