    I say a BMW M3 engine bored out to 4.0l's with a low pressure twin turbo set up? Just a suggestion.

    Anyone ever see that Simpsons episode where Homer designs a car for his brother the auto exec and he adds so much crap to it that it costs way to much and its super ugly and no one can afford it? Cause i have a feeling this is heading that way...

    I can be in charge of the "others" stuff . The headlights and stuff. I'll see if I can do any stuff in photoshop.

    Hey Egg nog, do you think us choppers should do a concept of this once everythings sorted out?

    hey kko, want some help with the engine?


    im thinking maybe a turbo 4 cylinder like an FJ20 or SR20 all the way up to a Lexus 4L. Down here you can by supercharged Lexus crate motors pushing out about 320kw and 550nm with a simple twin screw supercharger

    Well what would you plan on making the displacement?? 2L?? My vision of the BEST car in the world caries more than a huge supercharger on a I4 2L engine.

    If we wanted to, it could have a 6L V12 working quad turbo's on a kerb weight of sub 500kg, but thats impossible. A high revving, forced induction straight 4 could be good for the car, same could a small capacity V8 like the Lexus unit....
