Surprised it didn't permanently twist with that in it. Quite a heavy motor, lots of torque and prob a "Corrosion lightened" chassis.

I used to have an uno turbo that was a solid 30kg lighter than any other uno, that's how much metal had removed itself.

Yeah I know it's not a new thing to do, I mean ac - cobra for one lol.

Think a supercharged smaller capacity (1.5-2.0) v6 would sit nice in an Mx5, too many "will it ever spool" turbo conversions in them at the minute
