What about a Fuel Injected Turbo Type 1???

The whole type 4 thing is really foreign to me, even though the norm for a german looker is a type4...

If at all possible, I'd like to stay away from things that could complicate the project, but still like to maintain similar goals (HP, theme, looks, etc)

So, to get the power that I would have gotten out of the type 4, and the look of that oh so sleek shroud, what do ya guys think of a type 1 turbo, fuel injected?

I'd have to start a whole new chapter of research on engine stuff, but hey, if it can get me in the ball park of say 200 - 250, that would be where i'm aiming ....

the car will be a show car more times than a drag car, but i'd like to take it to the track and get some nice numbers.. :-)

so anyways, any of you guys seen or have a type 1 FI turbo, is it possible to put it together?

(PS, what I meant about the type 4, is that parts are not readily available, and to get one, you have to get one from another car and all, i'd rather start off with a long block; fresh)
