They're making a trailer, with an engine, solely to power a huge fuckoff supercharger, that they're going to use to charge the car towing the trailer.

Holy poo poo.

Yeah, I'm reasonably certain they've said the engine they're using for planning out the install isn't the one that's eventually ending up in the car.
