If you read the windshield sticker it says it's running a Garrett GT30 water cooled TC...and also has a PWR intercooler...hmmm.

Hey guys, that red one is the concept for the twin tubo. That's the pic my dealer showed me. He said that he is not ure whether it will show up. But he is sure that the 362hp 8 will be out possibly in ''06''. Whether is right I am not sure. Just passing hopeful info along
