Looks great. I love it 
Pretty ordinary power figures. 730hp @ 5800rpm. Torque is interesting - 962nM @ 5000rpm.
Compare it to the likes of the Nismo build of the XR6T engine. 1000HP out of a 4L with 1 turbo. |

Yeah cant help but feel they're holidng back. I'm no expert but im sure you could produce more than 13.5psi with 8 turbos. Spose it takes a fair bit of flow to compress all the air in that plumbing.
Also noted they had GM heads on there and GM transmission. |

It does look cool, all for show. I dont think maximum power output was the key consideration. |

Very true. At the end of the day, I have no doubt the thing would move along at a reasonable pace
I'd love to hear it overtaking me on the street. |

| I'd imagine it to have plenty of lag, which would explain the HP it produced. Theyre not the smallest of turbos so would need the air flow of perhaps a 2lt motor to spool each turbo... a 5.7lt diveded into 8 dosnt produce a great deal of airflow at low rpm |

That was my concern, too little exhaust gas for that many turbos. |

8 Turbos - wank factor of 10. It shows what it really is - a show car. Much the same as Howard Astill underdriving his supercharger on the XA coupe so it made virtually no boost....
