@JagerZed Actually, the Eaton M90 we used comes off some '90s GM cars. You can regularly find them for under $50 if you look in the right place!

Our camera audio quality is poor...it doesn't do that engine sound justice!

Used superchargers that are reliable are about 2k alone.. how is this possible?

1UZFE eh, very nice. Great choice: cheap, light, high potential, overbuilt.
