I think he did a killer job with that setup, only it must weight twice as heavy on the nose now than before... oh well.
I still think that vette takes the cake. Something about twin (efficient) blowers on a big block to make you shiver. The problem with that vette was the rear tires. WTF was he thinking? He needs like 4 more inchs of tread width.
730 from 8 turbos an lsx intake, heads, and cam?? like i said garbage...there are single turbo ls1's that have made over 1000hp and even the rear mount sts has put like 650 to the wheels on a few setups with a mild combo. the price of the extra 7 turbos and plumbing does one thing and thats add about $10k to the price and little else...the tubing setup was retarded if you saw it...its a show car and no more...somebody just had alot of cash and wanted something different IMO it was a bad investment though though somebody would probably buy the car for a 1/4 mil.
