It needs a scoop for a supercharger. Then it would be perfectly insane.

500 HP bike is pretty close to insane, imho:

I'd like to see a picture of the engine bay. I'm wondering how they say they fit the LS9 in there. Moreover, I'm wondering where the transmission would've gone as well. I'm no engine swap expert, and I hope I'm wrong here, I really do, but something just doesn't seem right to me.

i looked for an hour & couldn't find any engine pics, but i'd say it's possible. the car is based on th exige, but it's been lengthened and widened. the ls9 is the same external dimensions as any other GenIV small block (just with a little more overhead clearance needed for the blower/intercooler). they also offer a huge range of engines from HO 4 bangers to the LS9

mid engine, they stretched the length of the car a little bit to get the extra space they needed.

and I want a torque gauge like that....

LSx engines are probably the most popular for swaps. They make good power, get good gas mileage, they're light, easy to work on, small and not too expensive. What's not to love?
