Does anyone know the tuning potential of the 3 cylinder Turbo lump? the g10t or something. Lastly, is it even available in the UK?

Thats basically doubling the standard hp and adding a half more to the torque! Not bad for a little engine. I'm gonna guess he's spent quite a wee fortune on it? I was just thinking of it as its a compact little engine and wondered why it hasn't been plonked int a Mini, or has it?

Also remember the various 'zuki engines having many interchangeable parts such as 'boxes to get good ratios and in some cases even pistons when boring the block out - such as the 1.6 Vitara pistons. Mind you I'm sure its a bit more complicated than just boring and using the pistons... nothing is simple!
