Oops. He posted em, and I assumed it was his. I stand corrected. Either way it's a killer setup.

i don't think the red camaro is tom kempfs car.. isn't his single turbo with the raised SS type hood?


i think those cars are baddass, i always see 'stock bodied' mustang racecars with twin turbos but not f-body's often

There are two red cars shown. To clear the air, the red car with the slicks on the back and the twin turbos in the nose is Rob Golobo's car. The red car with the 5" down pipe above the k-member is Tom Kempf's Red Rocket. Harlan did get the down pipe to fit with the high clearance BMR piece. When Tom parked the car in the wall at Norwalk it messed up that K-member so bad that we put his original ARE K-Member (no one makes these any more) back in the car. We did modify the down pipe to fit and it does fit with what basically amounts to a k-member that most people would have.

Ideally if we had Toms turbo on the driver side the pipe would have been a straight shot. Originally we only ran a small downpipe that pointed at the ground under the hood. When the rules changed we moved it to exit behind the front tire. We can interchange the two different down pipes pretty easily.
