This is one way to boost your car:
 
This is being referred to as the "Snorkel Turbo"

Kind of has a Mad Max feel to it....in an odd sort of way, I like it!

Of course, it's a HONDA.

rotten42 05-13-2005 02:11 PM

ya, but I don't see a Type R sticker?

Sad part is it's probably faster than an rx-8. I saw this on another forum that mentioned it was running a 7.8 in the 1/8 with a 75 shot. Also before the turbo was "installed"

Edit: It's for sale here

If that is the same car, he made some "other" modifications

actually it shoots out a high inductive particle ray to sweep unwanted cars in its path :eek:

You have to have respect for fast ugly are....you know, like this one and STI's :D

0-60 in 2.8

That second car would probably work better if the output of the turbo were actually attached to the intake somehow.

that's just too much exhaust manifold for a motor that doesn't even produce that much exhaust. that thing has got to have a lot of turbo lag. people just have too much time...
