Doesn't look like anything useful because I dont think it cant even push the car. He just has an afterburner straped to it. I just thought the picture was nice since it is from one of my favorite photographers.

Here is a vid of it.

so basically its just a big waste of time, money, and effort. and its only for show?

[EJ25RUN]

Yes you can say that. But when was the last time you saw a jet engine in a random car?

And if he wanted to, he could make that thing work. It has enough power to move a vehicle 4 times the size of an Eclipse.

[Mr. Clean]

does that one actually move the car?

nope.

just for fun as well... but california dubbed his car a "threat to national security" lololololol so he is building a scooter with 2 smaller jets lol hahaha.

[EJ25RUN]

nope.

then why doesnt he?

[Mr. Clean]

then why doesnt he?

because that would be 1350hp on a DSM.


disaster. they can't even handle 180.

[EJ25RUN]

then why doesnt he?

Why are you asking me? I haven't a clue.

I was just stating that particular engine produces right about 1500hp.
