Moran had a quad turbo setup in the works but I'm not sure he ever ran it. He scrapped it a while down the road.

The car was Casper, it was originally a 96 z28

There was a story on this quad-turbo on Hot Rod TV. It made one pass and it was in the high 6's. The second run was a no-go due to valvetrain problems.

he got low 6's at 240mph out of it eventually but a rule change made it worthless so he went back to a twin turbo setup

The quad turbo engine was in Casper, a 4th gen Camaro, currently he has a twin turbo Monte Carlo that has been some 6.20@239 mph.

That car was as much a Camaro as Force's car is a Mustang.
