Some will tell you the power doesn't matter bc dynos are subjective and all that matters is your track time 😂

I'm not on that side
I'm guessing 800+ easy as we've seen 700s with SC and turbo is more efficient. Tuning will be interesting

Definitely curious to see the finished product.

I do not envy the creative work that will be required to finish this but its nice to see a front mount setup without it looking like a complete hacked monstrosity.

Still waiting for someone to fab a procharger setup for ****s and giggles too.

1400whp for the start once the current planned configuration is running well are my estimates

My first aim is 1000wkw which equates to 1400whp but then turbos will be maxed then I'll be looking at twin G42 compact turbos 1250hp each rated and then shoot for 1800hp lets see but still a long way off

I have enough fuel supply for 2500hp

Im surprised they didn't fab a custom front subframe to give a little more room. Good job squeezing them in there!

Nice that was my question, as a 722.9 won't even hold up to supercharged use, all that torque will eat the stock transmission even built I suspect.

I'd recommend building a small manifold/reservoir for the oil drains instead of just lines to a pump. Also, don't skimp on the scavenge pump(s). You can also go wtih oil-less/water-less Comp turbos which are a decent idea for under car setups like this.

You can zoom in to see the reservoirs on this setup
