That's pretty similar results to what we were shown a couple years ago isn't it? I'd be guessing for the same reasons...

As for the interview how does he think that 700+ftlbs of torque is better on the street (not that is isn't just plain cool). Does he live where the streets are a prepped track surface or something. Even an awd TBSS is going to spin hard on the street with too much low rpm torque.

The results you are referring too were on a "non purpose" built motor. This is a motor built for boost and with the MagnaCharger MP122HH in mind. I posted this to show what can be done with the right research and package. There are alot of bench racers on this site, that dream up packages that are destined to fail. If people would do more research and ask the RIGHT people about their proposed ideas then there would be allot of money saved...and allot of HP made.

That being said, this is not totally about promoting the MP122HH or Magnuson for that matter, its more of a way to open up discussion about other proposed combinations......even turbos

I like the idea and don't take away any cool factor from it. Unfortunatly some see something like this and take too much away from it wanting the exact same results. This video does bring me to a question I had for you though since you are likely the one to know. In the big flowing setups, how much is gained between the front inlet blowers to the rear inlet system?

I spoke to Duttweiler before beginning my build. He was helpful to a point, but didn't leave me feeling warm and fuzzy about what direction to go. When I offered my specs (cam and heads) he flet it was a worthy combination...but as with ALL the big names I asked to price the package (LPE, Livernois...etc) nobody had any interst in offering 500+rwhp, and more than a few never got back to me at all.

That's what your right foot is for.
