    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.

    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.
