Default EXOSKELETON options

I have been looking at the RCR superlite roadster for my next purchase and going with a turbo K or B series and the target HP will be aprox. 400 whp but we all know how that goes. haha I am just interested in any input you may have about the exoskeleton cars and any other viable options out there.

looks like a fun project. B and K series are great but they're played out / too common anymore. seems like your down with spending dough so go for an all motor 20valve 4AG. build your own Formula Atlantic series motor!! ITBs, the whole nine yards. ^_^ that would be hella tight.

Looks like an Ariel Atom....I'd put a turbo B18C in it and let it rip the hair off the top of your head.

I'd stick with the Honda powertrain but no turbo. Like helldriver, ITBs or even carbs!

Well, I have alot of experience with turbo b series from past cars. I am not as familiar with the K series but it will be no problem. I will be going with a honda/acura engine purely because that is my passion. My last toy was a turbo hatch w/ alittle over 300whp on a LS. I have taken some time away from the sport and was looking into another hatch and then I saw this and think I have changed my mind. I mean, to start over with a 92'-95' hatch, to do everything including brakes engine, turbo kit, etc..... I will have aprox $25K in it. I could do this SLR and have 400whp for $25K and it would be way faster and I think more fun.
