This is a turbo charged V-8 running on Methanol, with slightly cooler exhaust than you will see.    
Lynn, looking at that turbo glowing red makes me wonder, "How much of the added heat is added to the intake charge by compression and how much is added by being blown through a glowing red turbo?"  Does the turbo itself add a significant amount of heat to the intake charge?
