i have been considering a second 480 turbo engine in the rear of my R5. once i'v got another engine and a car to use as a day to day runner, this will be an option i will be looking into a lot closer. all together it would be a 3.4, 8 cylinder, bi-turbo, 4wd R5. sounds like a plan :) :) :) :) :) :) :)
