Stay completely still. I don't think it can see us unless we move. Now...calmly... RUN.

Yup. The bugeye is still my favorite 'rex.

It's cool in a different sort of way, but that is a seriously complicated system for no real benefit other than being different.

Have to give the props for doing it his way and making it work.

Six eyes and two sideways mouths...what kind of Lovecraftian horror is this?

This would sum up what I think of this as well.

Also: the ever-important issue of weight distribution!

Well it does make 460whp on 93 and 612 on 110. So there's that

Yeah I'm not a fan of the look of the dual FMIC

Yeah, but a sleeved 2.5 could do that single twin scroll EFR or done a proper sequential turbo system staggering something like a GT2971R into a larger 35+. The argument can't even be made that this was done for response simply because of the piping. It splits to two turbos that then feed a single intake.

The point is that it is interesting, but it's more of an oddity than anything.

Seriously. That is a lot of weight moved into odd places for no reason, but to each their own I guess.

Gotcha. It would be awesome to see that sequential setup.

what we are looking at here is a very expensive future fender bender.
