I REALLY like the idea of boost limiting the lower gears. I'd like to implement something similar in my junk eventually.

OMG, the SOUND is what makes the car!  It has this deep, raspy growl that is just awesome...until the boost hits and then its like:

So true. I am not usually a fan of loud exhaust, but this is absolutely perfect for this car. Truly breathtaking, and a perfectly driveable street machine at 1100 HP. Unbelievable tech.

If I ever get to build a big HP 'bird I'll look into a couple of things that he did on this. The dual gas tanks is a stroke of genius. Lots of weight and complexity, but the end result is undeniable.
