Thanks. thumbup

Funny you should say that but there is a twin turbo for sale if you fancy one....
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/like/121573335443?clk_rv...

The reason for the high ride height of the SD1 is that it is a South African built car so I'm guessing the roads weren't up to much 30 years ago. There was a lot of dust in it - probably from the Kalahari desert. tumbleweed

The Chimaera is having a full engine rebuild as well as the turbo fit. Can't wait to try it out. The power hike is this (allegedly). (taken from website Powers Performance)

"The 4.0 litre supercharger which I took across the Alps, from its original 190bhp and 210lb ft of torque at the rear wheels, delivered in excess of 260bhp with 260lb ft of torque. But the turbo is in another league. From its original 191bhp and 213lb ft of torque at the rear wheels, the Powers Perfomance 4.0 litre RV8 Turbo charger produces 317bhp with 380lb ft of torque running with 15 pounds of boost, or 338 bhp with a huge 427lb ft of torque at the rear wheels running with 20 pounds of boost. That is incredibly 30% more bhp than the supercharger and 64% more torque."
woohoo

Bloody hell I love that Janspeed Twin Turbo! Even the 'Caramac' interior looks cool! What a great project for the lucky bidder.

Look forward to reading about your impressions of the TVR when you get it back.
