Default ah , yes. a turbo v8.*vid*

I love honda's..i love turbo honda's but as an automobile enthusiast I dont limit myself to only one make or model.
here is a prime example.
put simply.I love it. I would love to own it. I would love to drive it. I would love to hear the v8 roar , with the spooling sound and the rush of the bov. man that would be sweet.
Its a turbo Firehawk.

the sound... revving....epsecially launching...its just PURE brute power!

just thought I would share and offer a little change of pace for tonight.

Daaayyyuumm. That thing came off the ground when it launched. I hate the looks of those cars, the interiors, and the overall design but they have a bad a$$ engine. LT1's, LS1's, and especially the LS6 all get a from me.

Hehe, people say the turbos are a replacement for displacement. I dont think they conside the fact that larger displacement engines can use turbos too.

The owner of Haltech has a Z06. He custom fabbed a twin turbo setup on it. It was freaking bad a$$. There was a link to the build up but I cant find it.

nothing like getting a serious turbo set-up, slicks n' skinnies, and run it all with stock suspension!

looks fast, but unsafe as it squishes around like a caddie.

yup, that's Harlen. I know the guy and yes it's driven daily. It's a twin turbo setup with 600 wheel horse on a mustang dyno. That car is just plain sweet. He's always at the races in the summer time and he's considered one of the "big dogs"

That's the coolest F-Body I've ever seen. There's apparently a twin turbo firebird running around Ohio, too in the Columbus area I believe.

True. The twin turbo Vettes make stupid crazy power. The Lingenfelter pulled of a 0-60 time of 1.9 seconds with Motor Trend driving it.
