I just thought of some thing. I think that thing is here in KC. I've been told to go to one of the speed shops here in town to see it. Plus I think I know the area that the vid was taken.

I've thought about doing a twin blower set up on my 8.1 but I think twin turbos would be better.

i am not too certain what diesel engine it was on. i am not familiar at all with them. but it was a badass setup even if it was on a semi truck.

I saw something similar to that on a Buick 455. They said it was like 700 or 800 hp/tq on pump gas.

I've seen some twip whipple setups too!

It looks pretty sick, but I would think that it's got to cost a lot to make a lot with a setup like that.

Oh yeah, back in the day when pro-street was king, there was this twin supercharged twin turbo'd car. I heard that it didn't even run, because they could never tune it properly.
