lol it aint my car, its a picture i found in a mag. it really works though. you use the valve to govern the amount of push from the exhaust.
 
Hum.. Youd think he might get more power if he didnt have so much twists in the hose, like a direct port straight down into the engine instead of all the curves n turns n bumps.. hum.
 
I'm honestly shocked that none of you have remarked about the fellow's windshield.

And, even if he's getting 450 horsepower, can he see where he's going beyond the broken windshield and huge hoses?

lol,me ansd my dad attemped the same thing kinda,at the shop,with a 460 ford engine,it was a piece oif crap,being the nut my dad is,he connected a filter to the induction,and well,we did other things with it,including putting a supercharger on it,i dont know what model,but it was a eaton brand,and well we blew the thing up,at work,its fun :)
 
I think it's the rusty stake holding it in place (nice weld there) that does it for me! Can I get a kit for the Subaru?

What was that poor thing?
 
That is just rude "the pic" what they have done. Nothing more than a cheap attempt at turbo charging an engine, and one that really shouldn't be seen. Though it is quite funny and I am sure it is one heck of a conversational piece.
