Decide Where To Put This Stupid Twin-Turbo Hayabusa V8, Then Buy It

I don't think I've ever seen a Hayabusa-swapped anything that I'd describe as less than "wild". We've gotten excited over a UTV with this powerplant and seen a Hayabusa-swapped EV ripping on a drag strip but calling those projects "wild" after seeing this twin-turbo Hayabusa V8 now seems borderline insincere.

The difference between this souped-up Hayabusa engine and the ones we usually post about is that it hasn't been swapped yet, and you can buy it. In fact, there are two options to choose from. 

The lads at JFC Racing, as brought to our attention via our friends at Jalopnik, offer two variants of this engine based on one of Suzuki's most popular models. Both are nuts, but one far more so. You can opt for a 3.0-liter naturally aspirated version, which pumps out 460 horsepower and 280 lb-ft of torque, or a twin-turbo 2.8-liter that makes 785 horsepower and 505 lb-ft of torque.
