Questionable modifications: pictures inside!

I can't describe those without using the words "America" "🤬" and "Yeah"

The Mustang is interesting, but I don't like the fact that they are diesels. Tri-turbo diesel made that car FLY though.

I love the polarity in generating massive power.

One camp: "add moar stuff, no replacement etc. etc."

The other: "squeeze as much power from the displacement as possible."

Eventually you reach things like the 1,500bhp 1.6-litre turbo F1 cars that grenaded within minutes.

 

[Sage Ages]

The less grenading, the better.

I'm more like this. A big lazy engine that makes a lot of power will last a lot longer than a small one that has to scream to make power. Another reason why I am partial to our "fat American lumps of iron that go blub-blub-blub when you start them".

I guess that explains rotary engines...

That's just a poor design as far as longevity is concerned to begin with. I'd like to not have to rebuild my engine every 100,000 miles, thank you very much.

Yeah I know right? They really do scream though for being pretty small. And 100,000 miles? You'd have to be one lucky man to get that out of a (turbocharged) rotary!

But triangles.

👍

I'll stick to my overhead valve engines

I can't lie though, it is neat how they work.

Me too. I'm content with about 350 or so.

I agree they do scream but they sure as hell don't last long

The older I get the more I am turning into one of these.

Honestly, doesn't surprise me. I see it a lot around here, and people still don't expect it. Considering all the torque those diesels put out, modern ones being near 900 lb-ft, the turbo's just bring the horsepower up and it's not unheard of to see over 1,000hp and 2,000 lb-ft of torque out of these diesel motors for not a lot of green.

And then those videos appear.

I'd do it.

That is a very large thumb

Of course it is. It's a thumb of a giant, what did you expect.

I'd daily that bitch.

Mhm yeah..... at 7.4 Liters, I called my Uncle's Goat a gas guzzler. Hell the 3.8 V6 in my van is a gas guzzler...

At 18 Liters in a truck....

Its not going to get dailied lol. If we put it in the truck its going to be dedicated for mud. Hell put 48s under it or 54s.

Somewhat back on topic:

And then the funniest photoshop I've seen.

Kinda like the shopped R8.

FD3S RX-7 modified by Scoot.

It's got two 2-rotor rotary engines bolted together, pumping out around 470bhp. That's brilliant, nothing questionable about that, but look how they did a complete transformation of its rear end.

And I kinda like it...


But I'm not into its butterfly doors:

 

[The Stig Farmer]

Oh gawd.

 

[JAHHAJ]

I like that, the lights are ugly but apart from that it looks nice...
