The turbo is a Holsett HX50 and the supercharger is a one off manufactured in Europe by the same guys that make Kleemann. The turbo can support about 1000hp and the supercharger is needed to help spool the turbo. The idea here is to build a car that makes 800awhp with stock like spool. I live in Denver so the altitude would never allow me to use such a large turbo without a supercharger. The supercharger is covered with tape in the picture to prevent it from scratches while the car's being finished. I have more pictures that I can post later of the manifold, liquid to air intercooler etc.

i would love to see more pics!!!!

questions, why such a large turbo?
if everything is done as planned, how fast do you think it would be?
why isn't NOS used to help spool the turbo?

The coil-on-plug set up is hot too!

The beauty of a supercharger like that is that you can retain your AC

Another picture. KFive on this forum has pictures of the manifold etc., I'm hoping that he'll post them. The tranny is a five spped custom dog box with a sequential shifter. 4th and 5 th gear are helical cut to make it more streetable.
