I read the whole thread to see if he really killed himself, and he didn't.

what the heck is this? I swear, some people just think backwards. I havent seen a bigger waste of time, but I would say I would laugh if he actually died. This is really random. Random like this guy who was cutting his grass, fell in his septic tank and died. Or the guy who turned his intake system into a bong.... hmmm

Besides the misleading title, this is a very interesting thread. I've seen rear-mounted turbos before, just not in the passenger seat *scratches head*

Don't care what any body says, that **** looks COOL.

Must sound pretty interesting aswell.

I'd never, ever have two flaming red hot turbines sitting inches away from me pushing exhaust fumes through the cabin, but it looks pretty neat. Not bad with the Rustang reeems either

guess he'll never have to worry about finding a cigarette lighter, just reach over and touch it to the turbine housing and it'll light right up

hahahahaahhaa.

and i thought my shift knob and harness clips got hot in the summer. i couldnt imagine the heat coming off of those at any sort of full boost runs. he better fab up a firewall between him and the turbos.

Have you heard of the Darwin awards?

It's given to people who do something ridiculously dumb and end up killing themselves. If you knew that then you need to check your sarcasm meter, the battery might be dead

Anyway that must be the most idioitic set-up I've ever seen. There not just the exhaust fumes you must worry bout, there's the exhaust heat and hot oil too.

Inspection? I'm pretty sure you'll be arrested if caught driving this thing on the street

Freeway speeds + hot exhaust fumes and oil spurting in your face = someone's gonna get hit and pwned

Firewall or bust.
