I don't know why you would call that a waste of money. That's a straight tubeframe chassis. It couldn't weigh more then 1,000 lbs and it's got 140hp. If it were turbo'd then it wouldn't even be able to keep traction IMO. I think it's good to go the way it is. It could possibly use smaller tires to reduce the rotational mass.

If it was turbo it would lose traction lmao.gif
Smaller tires would defeat the purpose of what that thing is built for. When you build a crawler you are not concerned with rotational mass.
