How much? Last I checked those micro turbines weren't cheap.
But yes, just add them to the car:

Jaguar are going to build it, but without the jets:

Perhaps these turbines are not quite production ready then? I mean a supercar doesn't have to be Toyota Yaris practical. Mediocre reliabilty, short service intervals and expensive bills are all part of the supercar experience, so if Jaguar can't make it work here, I'm not sure if I'd be doing it just yet.
It does seem like a great way to build a DIY EV with unlimited range.
