What in the hell...??? Why would someone....????? I just don't really know what to say. I'm at a loss for words here.  Edit: I'm guessing that thing is a show car. Either that setup works really good and just looks dumb, or it dosn't work for shit and still looks dumb. Just think of all the drag that's producing on the engine! And look at the hood hanging on the wall, I don't think it's going to fit anymore  Other than that blower setup, that is one really nice car, love the paintjob!

i thought this was pointless and excessive too, but atleast they arent stacked, and it does run.

wow. i can't shoot myself again, because that would be pointless. i would just wake up to the same night mare all over again. i feel sorry for those people. may their brains rest in peace. like the color though. very nice paint job.

no i never posted it. partly because i think its kind of cool. pointless, yes. but its something you wont see often and atleast they arent stacked on top of eachother and taller than the roof line.

yeah where did you get that, and why the need for two blowers when its only running 8lbs of boost?
of course you cant see very far to the sides on the truck, but you can see down the left side. Its not like it makes any turns, its built to run down the track in a straight line and thats it.

I saw this on the clubgp.com forums a while ago. What i remember the guy who made it saying is that he more wanted to do it to prove that it can be done, rather than for the performance benefit...

Ummm. I've seen twin roots blowers before but the usually have been side by side or both mounted at an angle. But that to mee looks no better than seeing a 8 inch tip on a Geo Prism.
