In the rest of the world they care if the whole car blows up and kills someone.

Out of interest - do you know any of these garages? I'd like a supercharger fitted to the FJ.

Think bigger, that Jay Leno chap has a motorcycle fitted with a helicopter turbine. That's the kind of stuff you should be contemplating.
