I was actually looking at the Hayabusa as a motor alternative to an automobile engine. Stroked turbocharged Hayabusa engine in an 1100lb car... Sounds like fun to me!!! Either that or an SRT4 Neon engine with slight mods (turbo upgrade, injectors, stand alone ECU, & head work & cams maybe) would be a blast also. Guys are making 500whp from those little engines and still having them daily driveable. I'm kinda wondering where the radiator & intercooler would mount though. Also, I remember Fran saying something about an engine cover, wheel covers, and a nose piece possibly. I'd like to have a look at all that. I'm selling my ass off at work so I can buy one of the little roadsters!! I want one BAAAD!!
