Might look into one of those after I've exhausted my Supra. That is fucking cool.
Can't believe twin front mount intercoolers and a T88 34D on a 4 cylinder! That turbo is HUGE.
2.3 bar boost.

Can somebody say lag?! Imagine the wait for the HUGE turbo to spool up and then for the air to go out to the front, then back again!!! Oh my!

Yes LAG is evil, but being able to do 300kph?? I don't think you'd mind a bit of lag.
Looks like its built specifically for racing, not for around town (although its road registered). So lag isn't an issue.
I'd like to see the dyno on it, see where it starts boosting, and see what the redline is. Stroked 3S with cams etc could be up around 8-9k revs.
I wonder if the intercooler pipes get hot to touch inside the cabin. Also, how would you insulate the hole to the engine? There'd have to be noise coming through.

800hp is standard fair for 3S rebuilds in Japan.
