Poking around & found just one of those T58-3's jet turbine powers a Huey helicopter and develops 1,272 shaft horse power (SHP). Found a brief site on it

SHP is different than what would be produced in conversion to a car/thrust application but still gotta be hellacious hp.
Cost...? $$$$
Visual effect ... Priceless
Now these guys have installed one into an ATV.

Good stuff. More powerarghhhharghhh
