That's the same GTO that was at the 6th annual UPS Car show in Laurel, MD back in October. Where did you see it? The guy must get around. Here's my pic of the monster ......

Is that two giant ass blowers bolted on top of each other or three? What kind of bottom end can hold all that pressure in.

The lowest polished 'box' is a water to air intercooler....

So it's TWO BIG A$$ Roots blowers bolted on to a BIG A$$ Intercooler.

According to the owner when he wants to race he only runs ONE blower.

BOTH blowers are pullied to produce lower boost than a single blower could produce...kinda like: Blower #1 at 6 psi + Blower #2 at 6 psi = 12 psi total boost into engine.

If both produce less boost than one...then what's the point??:confused:

Exactly what's happening here....LOTS of attention and LOTS of people talking about the car.

Who would remember, and how many internet posts would be generated, by a GTO with a single Roots blower...

Race?? How could anyone "race" let alone drive with all the shiny metal in the way.

Also, the car must be so front weight biased that it drivers like S--t.

If you want attention that bad, figure out a way of making it a better GTO rather then a circus oddity.

On the other hand, I guess that we ALL get carried away sometimes.
