Not me! But if you needed another engine.....
What has struck me is where the intercooler sits in the car. The pipes on top of the engine are different........could they be mated to a GTA allowing me to run an intercooler down where the spare wheel (RIP :lol: ) used to be????

Nup. Its a bit of a mess. Look at the piping and gauges. Looks more like a wine distillary than an engine.

Notice the standard intercooler on the left, panelled off from the engine bay. He also has a dedicated pump and radiator in the original intercooler location to cool the water going through the turbo only. He has raised the turbo up by 2 inches to increase airflow and reduce heat around the slave cylinder, and hes lengthened the throttle body by 2 inches by using an extended steering wheel adaptor so that the 'V6' intake pipe can clear the engine and reach the intercooler.

Never mind engine bits - what about this "stork" that sits behind the steering wheel and controls the stereo. Now that would be a cool, even if slightly dangerous, addition to any car. I might ask if he's willing to sell it separately.

Probably works in a similar manner to Clint Eastwood's Orangutan Clyde. You just say "Essex FM Fred" or whatever he's called. A further benefit would be that you'd always have a blonde bird in your car - shame about the large nose and that red eyeshadow though!
