LOL!
The response tops it off.
It's probably lighter backwards, right? =P

I don't think it's that uncommon on a turbo car to run the intake the other direction. I've seen several and have one. Just one way to run a big single turbo with an intercooler and have the turbo on the passenger side.

Yea, I don't think it's the simple fact "THAT" his intake is mounted reverse, but the circumstances in addition to the "Fabulous" intake duct job that makes this so disturbing!

seen lots of blower/turbo cars do it as described above but (No Blower/Turbo+flipped intake=bad idea) Friends dont let friends use duct tape on their cars.

but it's 200mph tape, so it can handle the insane air flow that the custom tornado mount by the air filter is creating....
