This looks like a burnout/ smoke show special. I saw an article in Hot Rod magazine a while back with an old style Austin Mini with LS V8 and roots blower. It was like this Volvo.

"Rudezon" came about because beer. I remembered reading about it back when, like 6 years ago.
Looks like they hand-laid a one piece front clip. The only geographic reference I could find was Tiveden .

Rudezon came about as a result of boredom. The beer was just a mental lubricant.

Cameron Pyzewski getting daring ... B8444T. He is planning on 8 PSI of boost. With a static compression ratio of 10.4:1. The Effective Compression Ratio would be around 16:1. I might break out the slide rule later and pin down the ECR.

Looks like they might need to put a little whump in the hood, too.
Plumbing will be interesting.
Back in the early days of NASCAR restrictor plate racing, the Elliot boys were rumored to have built a couple qualifying motors that approached 17:1. Good for about five laps at Talladega. The France family had a few thoughts on the matter.

Wow 17:1! ignition optional? Stretched head bolts? Must have been good racing fuel.

What ever happened to Mazda's HCCI engine? ( Homogeneous Charge Compression Ignition )
The petrol engine that runs off compression ignition.
