it's that 800hp m3 people have seen i guess...bloody hell if that's how it runs normally - i see the filter but where is it connecting to the turbo?? some people run turbo's like that but it's purely drag only, couldn't be a street car cos of the amount of shit that will go in the turbo with no filter...
'08 GSX-R750, '02 CBR600F, and a beast of a Focus 1.8LX...

Looks to me like the 814bhp S50 engined car with the Air filter removed for photographic purposes.
