ITs been on the internet for a while. Havn't got the time to appreciate it till now. I'm sure he didn't have too much clearance issues. I hope he got both turbos in.

RB26 is regarded as more suitable for high HP applications because of how its built, its racing origins mean its built for rather heavy duty use, whereas the VQ engines were built as light duty engines, with emphasis on emissions, economy, and refinement.

As for inherent advantages of an I6 over a V6, I suppose you could argue that its better overall balance helps the more power you're dealing with.

I remember seeing something like that on another forum. I also remember thinking about how much money that would run someone..wonder if it was worth it.
