Yes I know it uses a SMG tranny but im pretty sure theres ways to fab around that. Obviously you couldnt use to stock ECU if you wanted to use a manual tranny so it'll be interesting to see how this will unfold in the future.

2ltrs, 130hp per ltr, and a grand total of 260hp. makes the k20a and k20a2 look like a joke huh

Yeah, read about this (i buy the mag). The roof scoop is daft, but expect the engine to cost $$$'s... the car is £65k to buy...
