Nigel, electric superchargers are coming in but I agree, the electric fans turbo revs was selling weren't the 24v 800,000rpm systems car manufacturers are fitting now.

In fact, I would imagine the Turborevs "supercharger" would be a restriction on a n/a engine as well Back to Lambo doors on a Coupe. No - just NO!

Lambo doors are just so wrong fitted to a Coop, they only belong on a lamborghini hence their name. Your car you can do anything you like with it. You did ask.

go_fast_Chris Unregistered G	not keen on the lamb doors.. but an see a practical use... when in tighter car parking space, should make it easier to get in out when that person parks next to you in the otherwise empty car park as people do.
