it's the camera angle, they're really 10-15ft away, the flame's only 3 to 4 ft. tops! plus those cans are bone dry...
the cart now, has a FMIC, Garett T3/T4 with all the piping underneath, intake manifold on the side, w/ bmw valve cover, intercooler piping to hide the torch line, propane tank mounted in the back (behind the seat) and safety exit (pull the pin and the left side of the cart breaks off so you can save your ass that's on fire and take the recaro with you... haha).
Plus some other goodies... ahhh, free time.

i also own two turbocharged cars, but i didnt know this was in relation to vehicles?
i thought we were talking toy projects. if you want to compare our boosted cars time slips, we can do that also (pre-warning, i do have the record for fastest time slip pulled from a stock internal F2T) wink1.gif
so yes, i do know forced induction pretty well.
and the lawn mower was a drunken week of toying around, we didnt spend one cent building it, only used things we had sitting around. it pushes 5 PSI on stock internals, and we still havent blown it up after all these years.
