That's an old American Turbo Pak setup. A period aftermarket deal when turbocharging was the hot thing.

Gordon as you well know the first generation CBXs were the quickest stock and this turbo one looks very well executed.
A decent front end complete with brakes that work and it would be even better.
Can you just imagine how the straight six spools up the turbo and the sound,,, that wonderful CBX sound.
