VW Beetle with a Turbo V8 heart

No specific details are known about this little monster, but judging by the published images and the limited information available, the owner managed to fit a 5.3L V8 engine that runs perfectly.

To keep such a powerful heart fed, the fuel is delivered through the Megasquirt system. Unfortunately, the gearbox used is not mentioned. Images after the jump.
