Very impressive! I love the custom intake plenum. What turbos are those? What gearbox are you using?

That looks pretty serious. Aside from the minor

issue of holding the taxl together, what are the engine internals?
Shame that cooler is going to be hard to hide - otherwise a bit of a sleeper (though that BOV doesn't look quiet either).

Interesting project.

What compression are you running and what control are you going to use?

This is exciting, it should be a super quick car. I don't think the V6 transaxle will hold up to the potential of those two big turbos but I doubt that's a problem beyond the builder's ability to deal with.

I like the big intercooler and clever piping. I suppose if you wanted to hide it you could with a clever bumper and air dam setup. Or.. leave it as is for the intimidation factor. I know I would be intimidated.

Clever work on the head cover.

Looks like she's gonna be a real neck-snapper!

Excellent packaging Gturbo! In the past I had considered a front TB (for a different N/A intake design) but withdrew the idea because of the timing belt and thermostat housing in the way - you just showed me one way to deal with that (though I don't see the thermostat housing on there). GaborK should see this.

That FMIC is a pretty cool design (dual tank to single on top?). The overall flavor of this design reminds me of Can Am way back. Could you tell us a little about the turbo choice, planned max power and when it's supposed to come on as well as how you plan to deal with the inherit turbo-lag of a layout like this.

Many thanks,
