It does look good, I really like this car. I'm really curious about what this engine will be capable of. Forged rods are good, but I wonder at what power level the pistons are going to go. It says approximately 20 PSI, but not what turbo they're using, only that it is "ideally matched and has no lag." I'll keep interest, I can't wait to see what tuners will do with it, hopefully an aftermarket crops up for them.

That's a good illustration for someone who's needs to see how air flows in a turbocharged engine, too.

Yeah I'm liking it too. I'm really considering converting my red line back to stock form and trading it in for a sky red line when they're available. However, this car isn't practicle. Moving my DJ equipment from point A-to-B will be quite difficult... but my friend Alex is going to be my partner DJ / setup crew guy and we're going to be using his blazer.... I don't want to always have to rely on him though.
