lol this is how it would be, install on car, lower the lift, struts brake, car is sitting on the frame, but no one cares because of the big ass turbo, then you realize their is no oil in the engine... so top it off with 15-18 quorts (s/p is the best!) and fire it up... hit the dyno, and you make it all the way to redline without even turning the blades... NICE! :runaround:

That would be perfect on FWD cars. Gives enough weight in the front to provide traction, but enough power to compensate for the weight.
I can see the ad for this thing now:
Spools up great at 25,000rpm and builds max boost at 35,000rpm! Experience almost no lag time!! Don't have space under the hood? Install on a trailer, run some piping (instructions included!!) and tow your turbo behind you. Perfect for any application. Fast and Furious!!
HAHA :lol:

I'm guessing it came off a locomotive or some very large machine. There's actually a business I pass on the train and they have something very similar, just more square sitting behind the business.
