are you sure it's a v8? i thought it was a subaru engine coz of the turbo's up high...and i cant see v8 banks in there.

[platypus]

i was thinking rotor or sube... i see a strong lack of V8 goodness in the car frame

[-BraXta-]

that excel is an example of someone who has too much money to waste =P

and too much free time =P

heheh

[twilightprotege]

yeah wtf is driving it???

check the middle of the 2nd pic rupe posted - i see grass!

[twilightprotege]

hey as i look closer - those are superchargers up top i think???

also, it's running on LPG too

[Rupewrecht]

you're right, i was told it was a V8 so never really looked that close

i was wondering what those things at the back of the bay were

and yeah, apparently it's LPG

i'd be saying rotary as the engine looks so compact!

[chipa]

Has to be a rotary! look where that turbo is sitting.

[twilightprotege]

yep definately LPG. on each strut there is a condensor thingie (that turns the liquid into gas, cant remember what they are called)

[lamby1986]

explain to me why you would have three bovs, all of which are different :lol:

couldn't it just have one big one for the required flow :wink:

[twilightprotege]

because it's a hyundai. things tend not to work so they need to build in numerous redundancies

[skippy]

:lol: LOL :lol:





wouldn't want to get ramed from behind in that thing

[Mizda_Mazda]

If this thing was at summernats, it was a v8 excel, from what I was told. People said it was a real sleeper.

[boostedbatman]

The engine bay of an excel COULDNT hide a v8, my money is on a rotary

I'd be quite certain a small windsor, chev or even holden engine could not be hiding under that! Almost certainly not enough room...

i was originally told it was a TT windsor on lpg...so it's *possible* there was another one there, but i doubt it

[lamby1986]

with that kind of a mod, it is possible it extends through the firewall :shock:

just a thought. not that serious :lol:

[MrShadow]

Either way, goddamn!!!! :shock: :shock: :shock: :shock:

[twilightprotege]

the firewall can be moved back easily, but takes a poop load of work

[Dogo]

i want to see the floorpan of that thing.

Everyone I have spoken to says its a V8.

[SP:KING]

Definately a V8 people, i saw this guy do burnouts at the nats, i think its a lexus V8, smaller than Holden etc

His first burnout passed the elimanations, in the final he crashed into the wall causing some pretty harsh damage, wasnt to happy

By the way it doesnt sound to bad either
