Audi S8 4.2 V8 circa 360bhp in a MK1 MR2! Oh and located in Bournemouth if any locals share my strange desire.

Whilst this is not subtle I can't help thinking it would be a great way to enter the firey doors of hell backwards in.

If I didn't have my own project to finish I'd be tempted to have a closer look at this. Might be a bit of a handful in the wet but nothing that couldn't be tackled at least in part with smart mapping and strategy using the latest generations of ECU.

Love stuff like this but agree that it would most likely be quite a handful!

very tempted. The Mk1 shape is my favorite, just needed more power.
