Was this thing built for Pikes Peak? Makes sense if so; at altitude, the compressors need to work harder to build the equivalent boost as sea level, which causes excess heat in the charge, lowering your manifold air density and reducing power.
i don't think it started out as a pikes peak rig ... but he definitely finished it off on pikes peak with that crash.
