oooh elise...i remember when some company put a B18C5 in one of those and that sucker was quick. And what in the world weighs 1500 pounds, a geo metro?

Do you live in america, cause i don't think it's very easy to get an elise here much less swap and register it for public road use.

Getting an elise is easy in 2004 when Lotus USA is making it all legal

rumor has it that it will be the toyota celica GTS engine.

The problem with that engine is there isn't much out there for it. Plus www.prototyperacing.com already drop a k20a in the exige and been testing it and improving that ish. They are up to 280hp right now I believe (all n/a). They have plans for a 350-400hp turbo kit

hrmm the celica gts engine has some good topend when their vvti crosses over, it's very noticable i think as much as itr vtec crossover. turbo XS is making a turbo kit for the celica gts motor soon it's supposed to make 276 whp on 6 psi.

Sorry to burst your bubble, but a 600 is not gonna run 10s without some squeeze.
