The car looks very well thought out. But I must admit to being surprised AER went the twin turbo route. This will comprise the aero of the air exiting the radiators and intercoolers. I would have thought they gone single turbo and mounted it above the bellhousing like they do in F1, or more adventurous go the "hot-V" route like audi have.......I guess it was a compromise of performance and throttle response, as a single turbo for a gasoline engine will be a bit more laggy and probably not have a VGT system........lets hope the car will make it to austin.
