Does "being done" mean stuff to do with a six cylinder engine and twin turbos or is that still a way off? Can't wait until this is completed!

In Vixpy Speak being done means he hasn't a clue, in fact he only started this thread so he remembered he owned the thing.

I should have added that by "six cylinder engine and twin turbos" I was referring to stuff to do with a conpletely different BMW Lotus Carlton hybrid and in now way suggesting or excited about the possible emergence of another B10 Biturbo touring.
