Except "WOW!"

Yeah, I sent that to my pop and his good friend who used to road race together. Their responses were pretty classic.

Dad: "Keep them away from the Jack and the stick welder!"

His Friend: "Yep and the guy with the stainless steel bends had a Visa card!"

I like that car that looks like it has a refinery inside the cabin because there is so much plumbing.

this one?

I mean oops I have no elbow cause I burned it off on the turbo, where my arm rest used to be!

wowza

there isn't anything inherently wrong with a remote turbo inside of a race car...it may get warm, and that is a TON of piping...but in theory it should work.

also, shouldn't the "cold air" intake work ducted to the interior too? the interior of a car will be cooler than the damn engine bay wouldn't it? don't see a problem there.

Just be glad that consumer grade turbos are engineered for containment.
