methanol injection to do the cooling?

If you spec the turbo right there inst massive heating....

maybe?

On the quarter an intercooler isnt "all that" anyway, other ways such as injecting something cold are far better.

I posted a pic I took of the bay on sunday night.

No intercooler/chargecooler/waterinj

There IS a nitrous jet just before the throttle.

May be running methanol, i dunno.

Running 8inj via 2x power FC's.

Mega fast, top quality.

Nitrous tends to come out at about -160 degrees C or so.

If you have that, you dont need much else

Gearbox- No idea actually. My guess is a PPG (or Phitzner, i cant remember) Subaru 4wd dog box.
Last year I remember he wasnt using anything too mad without mega trouble, and doubt he changed that.

Engine is in standard position.

Turbo there as its a shorter pipe run, easy to have equal length manifold, much more airflow, and mega short exhaust (exits out side of bumper, as does seperate screamer).

Scoobys are just SO under-rated IMHO

My garage is a 100 yards along from Andys and he knows his stuff and seriously does his homework . You just need to look at what he did before Imprezas to know that
