Picture a SVT with real low roadrace supension, Mirko, Touring wing (for Me), big rubber and OZ superturismo GT wheels.
Now add Built ZETEC Turbo with intercooler, Terry Haines Built tranny with LSD and for Flash have the exhaust exit in the left front behind the wheel well (for flame display on overrun).

This is sort of what I had in mind. No one expects a 4 cly CSVT. Yes it would be $$$$$$ but its just an idea, someone will do it eventualy........

BTW turboed 4 clys have made Mucho HP in many forms of racing (over 1000 in F1, near that in some IMSA GTP cars in the 80s/90s)




What are we not understanding? Theres very little weight difference, meaning little to no advantage in a road race. And how many turbo Zetecs are there puting out the kind of HP the turbo 3.0's are making? It just seems like ALOT of work for less payoff.
