Anybody seen anything like it before?



TGoo bad it's not mass produced. I think the closest thing to it would probably be the Aerial Atom.

It would be fun to ride, I know there are Turbo Kits for the raptor's and some other quads. Been on a Turbo Busa that was just plain scary.

It's a Subaru WRX STi motor/transmission with all wheel drive.



Plain crazy. The motor is up front. The radiator hoses run through the chassis. I'll see if I can capture some pics from the video.

pretty cool and looks like it would be fun to ride, but not sure if I would call it an ATV. .



Only time they took it off road was to do donuts in a flat pasture. Heck I have done that with my wife's mini-van...



Might be the 2006 answer for the person who always wanted a street legal chopper made out of the back end of a VW bug though. .

That would be interesting for on road but with that motor out front I am not sure about the approach angle for off road.

As for the turboed busa, somone posted, I believe on another site, that one dynoed at just over 700hp. Now that is insane on a sub 500lb bike!

I have seen turbo kits for Raptors and 450's, I want one for mine but can't justify the cost. I can do a lot of motor work for what a turbo kit costs but I would love to hear that turbo whine out of my quad. Put that motor in a sand rail and I would take it.
