i dont see the point really, it looks tuff as but why 8? one or two is gonna produce the same amount of boost that this engine will handle?

Its a showcar.
Its not a cheaply made, ebay showcar either.
Very custom/professional work there, and thats what the car is about.
It does drive too. I've seen videos of it quite a while ago.

What a load of bs. I doubt you would walk right past it.
I think it's pretty cool. Nice work.

would be better fi it had all the fans showing and the size of the turbos they seem hidden... nice set-up but poor showing, i thought a "SHOW" car was for "SHOWING"
