I am not kidding about mid V8. It would be easier and cleaner mod than installing turbo on TL engine.

No need for a turbocharger really (that would be cool though), the OP already runs a supercharger and it can produce respectable power once proper fuel and ignition parameters are dialed in, which Hondata ECU reflash will take care of.

I'm glad you're still tinkering with the CL's...i thought you were done with it when you sold the turbo from the silver one.

I'd like to see what you make of the CL, are you going to do anything to lighten up the body?

Volume is: 47.2 cubic inches or 750000 mm^3 = 0.75 l
Weight is: 47.2 cubic inches * 0.28 lb/cubic inch = 13.2 lb or 0.75 l * 7.8 kg/l = 5.8 kg
FWD is BS with 260 HP. With more power it just becomes bigger BS.
