Hm. Seeing as Hennessy gets 650hp out of that V-10 with naturally
aspirated mods, I'm not sure why you'd need to bother with a turbo.
Is there really any point to a 1000hp street car? It'd probably break
the tires free flooring it in 5th.

Just think of how much weight you could save getting rid that big heavy
transmission.
