Does anyone know of the existance of a cerbera 4.2 with a blower (supercharger, compressor) or even a Turbo? And does it have loads of usable power?

If there isn't, I'm sure someone with more money than sense will build one.

It would be a very expensive excercise :
Completely rebuilt engine with new pistons and cams.
Either twin turbos or superchargers or one large one.
Re-mapped engine management with larger injectors and plenty of plumbing changes!
Upgraded radiator and intercooler (with possible body mods).
Upgraded suspension.
Larger brakes.
Upgraded clutch.
Upgraded gearbox.
Diff might be a bit marginal.

50,000GBP upgrade to you guv'.

At the end of the day a decent Cerbera will kick most other supercars into touch anyway, so why bother?

Nitrous would probably be a better bet to pep up a road car? Probably get away without out major mods for occasional use?
