Chevy LS1 with 8 turbos!

Is there an engine in there somewhere? Do you have any more pics to show where the pipework goes?

What is it?

Cheers,
Darren

I think he might have read the SVA book wrong, the bit about needing a demist facility if a screen is fitted!

Red pipes are coming from the exhaust inside the wheel wells and the stainless pipes are going to an airbox at the back of the engine, then forward to the plenum. Looks like it is all show, no go, a trailer queen because there is no evidence of heat on any of the exhast components, but that is just a guess on my part. I do admire the workmanship....

lots of turbo'#s running through a strangley positioned intercooler with exhaust going out htrough the front wings? - assuming this is the front of the car???

Check the linky. I dunno if 700+ bhp is considered "all show and no go"

All that and he runs it through an auto box!

Seems to ruin the hardcore racer image if you ask me.

The pipes going through the wings are air intakes to the compressors.
