Well this car has one. The Noble M12GTO. Watch the video (Top Gear testing it). Maybe someone needs to call the Noble guys so we can get their setup!

"The M12 is powered by Ford's 24 valve Duratec V6, which normally produces 167 horsepower, but, Noble have added a couple of Garret turbochargers and almost doubled that figure to 310 brake."

btw - Don't save the link above, click on it and then save the link that comes up on the new page.

Wow, just saw that the archives are back up. Searched and found this post...someone obviously beat me to it. Although I did find a link to the video.

Yup, somebody seems to post something after finding the Noble M12 for the first time about every month or two.

Neat car, I would love to run one on a track for a bit, but the fact that I have never seen one in person even, sort of hinders that . . .

Tell me about it, I've been lusting after something similar to the M12 since a year or two ago when we all found out about them. Since then, I've found this site http://www.kennedyeng.com/ that has Duratec adapter plates made for VW transaxles... Can anyone say 1500 pound GT40 kit car with a 450 horse turbo 3L?
