i was watching the speed channel and saw that they installed a turbo into the back of the exhaust pipes on a corvette. it looked sweet and sound awesome when the test drove it. Imagine a Turbo in the engine bay and an additional turbo used for the exhaust - . If I remember correctly the turbo was adding near the rear bumper of the corvette and the end piece was the exhaust tip. Any one heard about this - it would be awesome on a celica

that's retarded. i suppose that being able to turbo a car with limited a/m turbo support and a cramped engine bay is nice, but really.
how much fresh air can you possibly get to the filters when they're mounted behind the tail lights, way up inside the rear bumper cover? how serviceable is any of this stuff anyway? can you imagine having an oil leak or popping a coupler on that? that's gotta be louder than hell, too. looks like way too much work and money for what it is. it's a clever idea i guess. i like how the outer two pipes of the exhaust are actually just screamers. the intercooler design is neat too. other than that though.... -------------------- ![]() do you know who i am, mr. worley? |
