Moddify that B16A2.
Or, spend some cheese and swap a B18C5(R type motor) in.
Hasport, or place racing motor mounts, drive axles, whole bunch more ****.

Yes, the new Type R motor is the k20a and it CAN fit in a car, but just as a f22 CAN fit in a Civic, or a f20 CAN fit in a CRX. It spins the opposite direction than the conventional d-series and b-series motors that the del sol is used to seeing and requires special mounts for everything. I'm sure there would be a weird torque on the chasis too. I'm sure though he is referring to the b18c5 motor, or at least i hope so. If not, we may be seeing this car in a magazine.
