I dont think that works. Turbos are exhaust driven. doesnt matter how much air you feed it...

well true kinda on that car i dont think there would be a gain except for the colder air but on a full drag car the more air the better

It's turbocharged homey. Water has to go thru a maze of curved pipings, enter the compressor side of the turbo, go thru more curved pipings, thru the mazes of the intercooler, more curved pipings before entering the throttle body. By then all the hot pipes and engine parts would've dried out any water that still remains.

That car isn't turbocharged............it's turbocrapped.

Nope, I was too focused on that big a$$ front mount intercooler he's sportin' LOL!!
Every one up in front will really know he means business when they see him approaching in the rear view mirror!!

If the owner was worried about looks, he'd painted the car, put on some decent wheels, tons of stickers, a huge wing and put it at the show, but then people still going to complain anyway, so he left it as is.
