That is absolutely insane. I love it! Looks like an RB26 in there with something like a T88 for a turbo. Massive!

And judging by the size of that turbo, 26psi is only approaching the efficiency range. I bet around 35-40psi it really starts to come into it's own...

good god that thing looks wicked. the widebody is one of the nicest I have seen. don't care much for the turbo sticking up through the hood, but damn, it means business. needs a nose job too.
