Damn... I just sold all the stuff to make a 650hp dry sumped one. That would have been a fun way to die

EJ20 Elise sounds fun. I'd recommend an EJ25 though for that authentic K-Series ownership experience.

I think a Porsche 3.6 M96 engine would also provide the authentic K-Series experience.. :mrgreen:
