Shot dude I wondered if someone would post this up! So sick.
Its making around 200kw at the rears on 12psi with a 6/71. He wants to run more boost but the motors a 13B bridgey not built to handle the stress yet. Bearings, E shaft oil apex etc all need a once over before he winds it all up. Fuckn Badass though.
Oh yeah the intake is made form two toyota 4age quad throttle bodies. Great ingenuity, first time I've seen them used like that.

That's a big tire back there to fit in the stock tubs. I have a 8.8 in my rx2 and it was shortened a extra 1/2" on both sides from stock measurement , I am squeezing 9" tires back there any bigger I have to tub.

I was looking at the picture on my phone I just looked at it on a real computer and it doesn't look tubbed. Just really nice wheels with a nice offset it's really nice looking.

It would seem that a blower this big would sap almost all the power the engine could make just turning it. Almost bordering on the old Rat Fink cartoon cars, but I still love it. Anyone know where there is a clean one in the NW? I'm a big fam of wagons (Got a BMW 540iT, and an Impala SS cloned Caprice wagon in dark purple), and have a bunch of parts sitting on my shop shelves to build a nice DD out of one of these. It MUST be a 74 ONLY- Don't care for the later models.

That wagon I was talking about has some rust issues but, I guess its expected for these old cars. It does have the engine and trans last time I saw it and is a 74. Let me see if it still avalible.
