What are people's thoughts on fitting a BMW s65 supercharged engine into the Gtr?

It's a v8 from the newer shaped m3, but they do bolt on supercharger kits then re map. Depending on kit between 500-750 bhp.

I messaged Kennedy, just waiting for reply from them.
I do like the LS engine, but just wanted to be different from what everyone else does. Open to other suggestions as not brought the engine yet. Only got chassis at the min.

Doesn't anyone know who could make an adaptor kit for porsche g50? I've been looking and can't seem to find anyone for sensible money.

Did you mean Audi engine and gearbox Paul, or just BMW engine to Audi box?

Loving the build cooberpedy! Did you buy adaptor plate, flywheel and clutch set up off the shelf or did you design and build it yourself as I'm struggling to find info on that at the minute.

Hope fully I can get someone to make it for me. I had someone say £3500 to make it for me?!

That price wasn't my friend. That was a garage. I'm hoping my mate can do it cheaper than that though. A new clutch kit is about £900 but then got adaptor and flywheel to make.

Ecu wise I think they're the one to use. They seem reasonably priced and does most things you need it to do.

Not sure yet really. Want to get engine in standard running form first and get it through IVA first, then once on road i can supercharge it then.
LSA engines are big money though.

A bigger engine and a lot of chassis alterations to get it to fit in there :/
