What kind of car is that? I've seen a similar setup on an NSX...the turbos were behind the wheels/tires. Looks cool...but what happens if for some odd reason you hit a major pothole or something and you smack the shizznit out of the tubo...hnoes:

Should really state, "Do you want this under your gas tank?"

You think it'll get that hot mounted under the car though with all the air hitting it?

it looks like the engine is up in the front because of the pipes going up to the front :dunno:

good way to put that hot thing next to the gas tank :chuckle:
