Here is something I came across a while back that is pretty out of the box. Almost 3500 HP 12 blowers, built by Millionaire Mike Harrah

how yards to the gallon do you think this gets?

 

[Sam_Fear]

I wonder what the view is like from the drivers seat?

That thing was featured in Hot Rod magazine about a year ago. It's a monster.

*Edit: Skull posted it up a while ago as well.

Flat land or down hill, cause it gets MUcH better "YPG" with a tail wind, turned off, down hill, on a trailer

I don't like the chrome rims on that semi - too over the top.

I've often wondered how much more lag putting a turbo in the back like that adds - ?

 

[carlm]

apparently not alot they do a rear turbo system for corvettes ,sts or something like that

 

[sneakysnake]

Seems like you would loose a lot of the exaust pressure with it back there but you may not need a cooler.

 

[jmlcolorado]

Bet the exhaust sounds pretty gnarly with that setup too!

 

[carlm]

From what the experts on jap forums say a shorter exhaust would give less lag. Less back pressure means the turbo can spin up quicker. also the turbo dose do quite alot of silencing ,i like it good solution if you have limited space .

 

[jfg455]

It is the heat loss that kills the rear mount turbos. Turbos work on "Load" not just air flow. They have to have heat as part of the equation. On top of that you have to pressurize all the cold side piping up to the engine. They do work but just not as efficiant as on right up by the motor.
