Nothing really to understand jambo. They are hugley over built and can make more power than you would want in a 7
Looks great man, I didnt think a turbo would fit in there but it looks like i'm wrong!
Cant wait to see that thing running, I might even have to fly over and see it!
Best thing to do for a build....

well the six cylinder version will go in another chassis , as its a tiny bit too long
the 6cyl is a derivative of the 4/5 cyl found in the fwd cars - so once the adapter plate is done - who knows .
basically the 6cyl would make a luvverly car to drive and listen to . it makes a lot of torque low down - makes me think of a modern Austin healey
3000
the 4 cyl turbo can make around 700 hp with a decent head/cam turbo combination and proper internals - so im concentrating on that version first

Feel free to send the 6 over my way- it would fit with ease--and do it justess with a holset strapped on the side.
