1000hp BMW M5 video I know this has nothing to do with LS1s but I think it's wicked cool.
The videos kind of suck because it's just of the motor. This thing should be badass.

One other thing, the V2 series vortech superchargers are rated no where near 1000hp output.

An M5 has 8 individual throttle bodies inside the intake manifold. I'd imagine they are still. Where else would they go?
It does look bulged up a little in the middle though, maybe it's just the light.

wth are you guys talking about?
the air enters via the two inlet tubes, into that custom intercooler built into the lifter valley, then into the giant plenum area which is sealed with the cool lid, then its sucked into the trumpets.
their throttlebodies are in the trumpets, not mounted up front where ours is.

One thing people keep missing though.
That blower is only rated for around 680hp or so.
