Whatthehell kind of fuel was that thing running, nitromethane?
I've run a couple of turbocharged cars in road races but NEVER have I seen one THAT hot....
I can just imagine how long the spark cables last

I'm guessing the glowy red one is an upgraded unit, running much higher boost than the manufacturer would ever recommend. As for the other one, it was picture from a "caption this" thread on another board. No I don't know what machine it's from (a very large truck perhaps? edit: it's probably from a large dynamo, a device used in powerplants to generate very large amounts of electricity). And no, it won't fit in your car. Don't even think about it.Last edited by impact; 23 April 2002, 00:35.Someday, we'll look back on this, laugh nervously and change the subject.

You guys are way too funny.
Manifolds glow red on many vehicles when running under full load. Not just turbocharged vehicles either. It's nothing special or unusual. If you were to put a camera inside most engine bays, when running high load, you would see a similar picture.

Not to mention that this pic was probably with a digital camera and thus can see into the infrared region much more so than anyone's eyes..."Be who you are and say what you feel, because those who mind don't matter, and those who matter don't mind." -- Dr. Seuss

While I am sure the camera will pick up the brightness of heat better than our eyes would, I think that you will actually see that under the hood of most any car that is being run hard.
A good example would be to take a motorhome with a standard V8 engine in it and run it without the doghouse on the freeway and accelerate up a hill....mmmm Cherry flavored manifolds!
