To the OP's defense the car did run, just not with the turbos.

The guy in charge of the tuning works for Ferrari of Elizabeth, NJ. He had like two days to build a map from scratch then the yanked the car to Brazil. So if you want to see it in person, take a vaca there.

 

LOL, the wife and I are going to Brazil about March

 

I have these picture up on my site for a year (or longer). Also, talked with the shop that did the work and they will only work with people that brings then a car they're in New Jersey (I think).

 

PLEASE! No more pictures of this car!

 

which car? this car?




that yellow and brown interior sure is sweet

 

I just left the shop where they were servicing a twin-turbo catapillar motor...should have taken photos...the engine was yellow...it was real, and it did run...550 hp...unfortunately, it weighs more than our cars...don't know how that applies here, but it sounded good...love those big diesel engines...who will be the 1st to put a deisel in their XF? or electric motor? Saw an electric car on the speed channel do 12's in 1/4...I guess anythings possible today...

 

Acosta motorsports moved to FL a few years ago. I went to school down the street from them and they did the exhaust on my car.

They specialized in custom turbo cars and rotary motors. Some amazing stuff come out of there.

 

Welcome from an old dude. THe yellow and interior dont work for my eyes, I cant see beyond that .............Woody

 

THANKS mrphotoman! We can always count on you.

 

A must read in 1/12/09 Autoweek ! Audis new S4 to use 3.0 V6 333hp with supercharger instead of twin turbos!
They studied their newest twin turbos V6s against and latest SC technology and went with the new SC technology because it was decided that supercharging was superior to turbos! Their hp and torque was rated less than the Crossfires SRT6. Oh, and it only will sell for $50,000+.

I kind of like that...

 

I'm pretty sure the electric crossfire has been done. I think the company was called Hybrid Technologies...

 

that cars was wild...I couldn't believe the burn out, let alone the pass he made...pretty impressive, and quiet...now that is a sleeper...

 

Shouldn't you be posting supercharger stuff? LOL jk

 

oh no, caught by the post police...sry officer, won't happen again...there I was with my twin turbo fan cooled electric super charged motor in my XF...

 

Not you, I was hoping for a supercharger update by chuck but none was to be had :'(
