You've gotta admire the engineering.
But the reasons behind some decisions (high-mount turbos with weird air filter placement where the supercharger should be, not to mention the twin charging) seem to just be for the wank factor.

some interesting choices there indeed..
2 GT30 turbos... pushing thru intercooler then into the AMG twin screw SC (i assume it's the twinscrew off the 5 or 6L motor?,and because they can run it with the SC off and no bypass), then into the intake runners..
all well and good, but twinscrew has high outlet temps, always.. 16-18psi should be around 120-130C, and that temp going into cylinders is not so great..
as for turbo placement.. doesn't matter too mocu where they are... for the intake to SC looks shocking!! only an inch thick perhaps??
pretty, but not so well thought out methinks  ... then again, where else will it all go
