Can anyone see why this engine bay has something to do with forced induction?

Looks like theres a internal wastegate painted black sticking out of the heatshield. Low pro turbo setup?

T bolt clamps usually aren't used on NA cars either.

You can hide the oil feed line a little better.

maybe stupid question, but if boosted why is the valve cover breather connected to the upper charge pipe?

i dont see the point in hiding whats under the hood. anyone looking for something will immediately find it. (unless you're a tard with a wad of cash in your hand and couldnt tell a wg from a bov?). its hiding from the outside that warrants it..

I think the point is to fool either emmissions guys or racers who don't look too closely.

If this hadn't been posted as a challenge, 95% of people would miss the turbo.
