The turbocharger system being permanently installed...





Ben working on wiring in the engine bay...



The anti-froth/oil-return collectors going on...

(the oil collects in these chambers, and is then pulled to the scavenger pump, then returned to the oil pan)









The intake system going together...











The hot-side charge piping in place...



As you can see, nothing routes into the wheel wells, it's all central to the engine bay...

F1 and Indy cars are automatics.

IDK about indy cars but F1's are not automatic. From wikipedia-

Formula One cars use semi-automatic sequential gearboxes, with regulations stating a maximum of seven forward gears and one reverse gear, using rear wheel drive.[7] The gearbox is constructed of carbon fibre or titanium, and is bolted onto the back of the engine.[8] Full automatic gearboxes, and systems such as launch control and traction control, are illegal, to keep driver skill important in controlling the car

If it doesn't have a clutch pedal it is an automatic by my dictionary.

Indycars have clutch pedals and sequential gearboxes.

what does it matter if its a manual or automatic? with that amount of power for someone that does not race top fuel dragsters every weekend, an automatic is the best choice to reduce driver error when shifting gears.
