Why would it be lazy & have stupid amount's of lag?

That car spool's up almost instantly. It's also not all about how much hp it makes, rather how much torque it makes, how soon it makes it & across a very wide power band. 710lb/ft (994Nm) @ 5000rpm on 13.5psi.

It may seem like a waste to fit 8 turbo's to a gen3 chev & you can make more power with just a big single turbo!
But I give him credit for trying something totally different. Christ, there's 280+feet of piping under the bonnet!

yeh ill give him credit, but i'd cut the crap and go single, or twin turbo's, the money he spent on all that piping and turbos and he could have had double that power!

i know its not the point because its something different and its a show car but its just the way i think

I agree.

The point of big engine is big power.

[Jarred]

If i had 8 turbos. I'd want more than 700HP. It's kinda a let down in a sense. "Oh i've got 8 turbo's on my G3"

"how much power does it make"

"oh 700 horse"
"oh.. oh. bummer. I was hoping for a few thousand really. "

Credit where it's due, it looks sweet and would be real hard to make it all work. but 700hp. let me down in the department. looks pretty crazy but.

Exactly my thoughts
