    Look at the intake tube (you can't miss it!) -- it goes from the throttle body over to the wing and down. There's a hole there where the resonator is, so that tube probably goes through the hole and has a cone filter on the end. No turbo on that.

    I see something against the exhaust manifold, dunno what it is tho.

    The back of the same car.

    It's a 94-98 Accord Coupe. I have to say the workmanship is outstanding, but the end result is pretty awful.

    That's a Honda S2000 engine in a 3-series BMW. There's a feature (in Japanese) on it on YouTube somewhere, if anyone wants to look it up.

    No it's not. The S2000 engine in a 3-series is different again.
