To be honest, it may be an edited pic. I just thought of this...where's the air intake? The front of the jets is right against the passenger cabin, no room to ingest air!
I would put my money on it being an edited pic. Those engines produce over 1000 hp each. With that kind of power you would think it would go faster then 170 mph.

It only makes sense that to produce thrust my a jet engine it would have to a have an intake and a large one at that
it is edited photoshop pictures, and not very good ones at that. if you look at the pic of the motors, you can see where he overlayed the twin turbine photo on the car photo. there is pieces of the rear hatch lid that are on crazy lines that do not show up in the photo of the rear top of the car with the rear hatch on. in that pic, all the lines are as they should be, straight down, not like in the other pic.
I'd say it looks like it was really done, but the size of the tanks leads me to believe it's only got a running time of about ten minutes, much less if it's being run wide open. The engines have intake guards on them, the inlet itself is actually about a foot back from the bulkhead.
I don't think that rollcage is NHRA certified, though.
