Honestly though, 300whp with a sub 2500lb sport coupe would be a blast. It may not be a Jannarelly, but it would be the closest thing for a poor man.

I concurred when Gordon Murray said, while being interview on Top Gear in his garage, that he likes light-weight, high-revving four-cylinders.

No turbo. Pure NA. K20 would be good too, but I’m sure a K24 would clear. Change the subframe and go dry sump if necessary.
