Tell me that is the wrong soundtrack - sounds more like F1!!!! Unbelievable. What is the spec / cost????? I want one.
My connection wasnt fast enough so just as it was getting to max revs the soundtrack was stuttering - sounded like the crazy frog on full chat!!

'tis the supercharger that you can hear! If you listen carefully you can just about hear a fairly moderately revving 4 cyl engine in there
too!!!

Tis amazing, he seems to have changed the plenum design at some point as it changes shape and style half way through the pics.

............but the supercharger was the impressive bit for me. The 578hp is all very nice but look at the spread!!!!!!!!!

I see a turbo, but no supercharger - I presume a supercharger is what made all that noise?

just found something interesting on the hilmersson site, the previous engine fitted to the manta before the current supercharged + turbo one, you
might recognise it's predecessor!!!
and here's the power plot for the turbo and supercharger engine..............
