Are you a current or recent car shopper who bought an EV and then installed solar – or who had solar already, making the decision to go electric easier?
OR
Are you a recent EV buyer (past 3 months) as a result of manufacturer incentives and dealer discounts on these vehicles, including year-end deals? Were you convinced to buy an EV after finding a good end-of-year deal, or due to uncertainty around which EVs will no longer qualify for full/partial EV tax credits in 2024? A national business reporter is interested in speaking with you. Please reach out to [email protected] by 12/15 if interested in sharing your story.

Here's a shot of Jay Leno's 1,000 HP Olds Toronado (1966 I think).
It's a twin turbo with all kinds of goodies attached. Next mod planned is water and alcohol injection so that the car doesn't have to run on racing fuel...must be mighty high compression or must get mighty hot in there.
How'd they get 1,000 HP into a FWD car without driving around in circles from torque steer?
Simple...when you have Jay's budget...use a Corvette C5 chassis and converted it into a RWD!

Twin turbos are a good idea on large displacement engines, work really well and a nifty solution.

Be sure to have the space between img and src and be sure to spell src correctly, which stands for "source" I believe.
Also don't try to load photos that are HUGE on your host page, because they will be HUGE on our website page and skew the whole text (pageview)

Looks like that wagon would make a nice stealth vehicle.

There were only 5 of these 350Z Type-E's produced in Japan.
However one can still attain the body styling and performance of one, or get the Ings+1 kit and with a Skyline RB25DET NEO engine and put in a high end turbocharger to pump out at least 500HP:
