don't see why they wouldn't go with a TT setup on a V8... other than that, you guys should ask the next trucker you see to pop his hood if you want to see a big turbo.

They didn't go with TT because this is a drag car, and they don't care about lag, they are only looking for massive horsepower.

to be perfectly honest, im not sure that is a turbocharger (as we know them). especially considering he seems to be in an industrial yard. my guess is it is a centrifugal water pump of some sort....could be wrong though
