Ok I an sitting here thinking about my next build and cant make my mind up on the spec

I would like it to be north of 250 to 300 horses but what engine could I get at a reasonable cost that would both fit and produce that kind of power

May use mx5 front hub's and sierra rear end

Would love some input from you lot
Thanks

Saab turbo like AshG

Mine will be up there abouts, but then again nissans might be an acquired taste,
if you hang fire a few weeks I will give you a taste as I am sending off my reg application off today

It has got to be honda s2000 hasn't it ? The v tech engine is a total beast, and they are amazingly tuneable. Nitrous, v tech timers, cams whatever. That engine is as strong as an ox, and an absolute peach when you let the old girl get to about 6500 7000 revs. If I had the money, this engine would be in my car without a doubt.

Seconded, S2000 has the best 4-pot motor ever. ~240 horses in factory tune out of a 2 litre atmospheric engine! VTEC cutoff at around 5500 rpm, and 8500 rpm redline!
