Supercharged 2.9/2.8 vr6

[GIMPTON]

Anyone got any experience of one of these conversions or its relative good and bad points compared against for example a Mr2 turbo unit or a S2000/Accord Type R engine.

Any thoughts good, bad, leave well alone

The VR6 has been both supercharged and turbocharged quite successfully (although obviously not both on the same engine!).

I know several Corrado owners who have had the supercharger conversion and seem to be very happy with it.

thinking of dropping one in my Mid engined kit, getting very tempted

Are the kits more reliable than they used to be, as I remember a time when everyone I had heard of had problems gaining the claimed power output?

Don't know, Tony. Talk to Guy H or John M.
