Don't think it would fit! barely enough room for 2L 4cyliners plus a snail and intercooler....but I could be wrong.

Do you mean something like the H6 TT conversions?

yeah, the engine will fit. The block itself is only like 50mm longer or something like that.

been done many a time... TOO expensive for most ppl to even contemplate.. look at roughly 30gs for the engine, plus another 10gs for a 6-speed dogbox plus 1000s more for diffs, driveshafts etc etc.

That said i would love to do it, and nearly did

Is that an oil cooler or something where the top mount used to be? and how can you run twin turbo with a 10:1 compression ratio. I thought it needd to be lower... But yeah, that looks bloody awesome...
