Kevin really is an artist the way he works is beautiful to behold. I wonder if the fact that turbos don’t come mirrored bothers Kevin or not. I imagine he’s the kind of guy who would want to have the turbos spinning opposite directions so that the piping could be properly symmetrical. Does anyone know if any turbo companies can do that? I imagine it might be a popular thing for twin turbo systems to sell mirrored turbos together. I wonder if the direction of turbine spin would cause turbulence when the two pipes meet. Surely there is turbulence at that join anyway. Just imagine that driver side turbo being mirrored. Damn that would look so awesome. Okay he says it at the end of the vid lol.

Kevin is an excellent example of the difference between a Fabricator and a Fabricobbler. A Fabricator is a person who is a true craftsman or craftswoman that strives for perfection and then improves upon it with innovation and extreme attention to detail. A Fabricobbler on the other hand is a person who believes that good is good enough and the new idea they ever have occurs more times then not by accident instead of intent.

Hey Kevin, I'd really like to chat with you sometime. I have a couple questions, im a toolmaker by trade and I program and run cnc machines. I work in the R&D department of optima battery company so I do this stuff on a daily basis but for molds and robotic assemblies.

I was so sad and disappointed to see the turbos moved up through the hood. This was suppose to be a full out drag car. Yet here he goes yet again fighting basic principles adding more drag. I bet the hood doesn't last a month before he takes it off as well

I agree man, I’m sure this car will just be another RMR Dragweek car thats made for endurance and quick enough to compete in whatever class it fits in. Not saying it’s not an amazing build, because everything KSR puts out is second to none, but I’m sure this car won’t be setting any records on fire. KZbinrs will aways choose hype and wow factor over functionality. Whatever gets more views I guess.

Kevin, in case you're wondering: I (and I guess it's more than just me) love that nerdy talk. Hearing the knowledge and experience you have and hearing your thoughts on certain things is extremely interesting. And because you're more a quiet person (at least on video), you're videos are super relaxing to watch. And your precision and welds.. incredible. It's fascinating. Love your content!
