I think they are calling it a Rocketdyne Booster.

Not sure if that means it's for those big dyno glory pulls, track only (pretty sure it would put you in the unlimited class), or street car (would really add some bling with a little polishing).

That's not a pc from Bob Howards car that Bob Norwood put on is it, since the 007 theory is gone.
BTW, Jon Milledge will be at Hallett on May 5 to check and tune if needed, Bob's new engine that he built. If we're in the same run group, I'll probably only see the exhuast of it though...but you never know

While sneaking around trying to get a better shot of the rocketdyne booster I stumbled upon this. I think it requires the LR custom header panel and maybe removal of the rear hatch and rear seats.

Thats the old model the new one they are working on pulls 9000 ft/lbs of torque and you can leave the rear hatch stock.

I put one of those in my car. Unfortunately, I installed my TiAl 38 backwards and blew up my motor when the boost hit.
