Ok, where does this Jag fit in the Frenchyd V Stampie debate?

https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/136549671813926/

I am team Stampie  all the way 

I was all Team Stampie, then I started reading the ad and I was like whoa, that's a screaming deal for $3,000. Then the ad said it's not $3,000 and I realized I'm firmly on the berk Facebook team.

I think yupididit will like that one.

"Legend"...

Yep. That one looks like it belongs in a Zombie movie. 

Can you imagine doing all of that to a car, deciding it's time for the car to leave your life, and then creating that ad, with those pictures and that description?

Frenchyd is going to have to install that much turbo on a V12 so we can compare shrapnel patterns after the engines let go.

Well.......

It is located in Florida.

I want an LS Turbo Jag so bad lol

I wonder... is that maybe turbocharged? It's hard to tell.

And echo the sentiment about obviously spending a lot of time and money for the worst description you can work up in 4 seconds.

Its about 40 minutes from me if anybody wants eyes on it. For science.

i WODER WHAT THE BOOST LAG IS LIKE?

Honestly, with 454 grunt launching you, boost lag is probably your friend.  Get it out to 60' before the holycheebusherewegooooooo hits the back tires.

that intercooler seems comedically undersized

also, why bother running the "exhaust" out the fender? 90 degree bend, dump pipe straight upwards

In reply to calteg :

lol - that's a good question. I can't imagine they were ever planning on having a hood.....

In reply to yupididit :

Get it & sell the 454 to stampie & the turbo back to the shipping company, then in goes the LS. Easy peezy.

In reply to mdshaw :

You mean sell the turbo back to the air-craft company? 

A Turbo that size.... that's a "mash the throttle and wait for it......... wait for it ........ wait for it........ wai..You're dead."

Ok, everyone,  the line forms behind Yupididit.

Do Stampie and Frenchy know we are talking about them?

That's the thing about those modern turbo engines, they hide their nature so well.

I wonder if it has a noticeable pull to the left with that side thruster exhaust at full throttle. Who am I kidding, you won't be steering anyhow because you can't actually see where you're going.

Please, in this thing we don't need visibility to ride to Valhalla

Shiny, and chrome

Jaguar experimented with turbochargers when they were developing the Otto cycle engine for Rudolph Diesel but abandoned the idea in favour of a poor cylinder head design that they stole from a GMC truck engine.

In reply to ShawnG :

Now you've done it. 

Frenchy are you going to take that? I'm sure there is a more nuanced story of the jag turbo-head history. Frenchy will be filling us in, with...The Rest of the Story.
