Is that the 3.0 L or the 3.3 L turbine?

Me: “I wonder if that’ll fit in a janky Chinese scooter?”

That van is fairly local. I was at Cars and Coffee one day, and it slowly rolls by on the front road, suspiciously slow. Suddenly flames. Took me by surprise. Dude looks like a mad scientist.

Max. starting altitude: -984 ft to 14,700 ft 

How...how does that even work?

I got a real close look at this van at the most recent family reunion. It’s great, and will actually almost lift the front end off the ground at launch. It drives the rear wheels through a shaft coming out the front of the turbine. Best part: He roadtripped it several days on the stock V6 that’s still in the front.

All I can think is they’re referencing sea level as the zero point. If so I guess crazy Chinese scooter mad scientists around the Dead Sea are out of luck since part of that is  over 1000ft below sea level.
