Sometimes, too much is never enough! Just supposing you actually wanted MORE power from your Griff...(I realise that some, not mentioning names sh, have already reached this state of megalomania)

What are the options?

There is a 5.2 engine from RPI or John Eales. Then again, has anyone been brave enough to go down the super- or turbo-charging road? I read one article that stated that this can lead to an amazingly short engine life.

I seem to remember a TWIN turbo Griff, Black I think, featured in Car & Car Conversions a long while ago.

Geary Powell of www.eliseparts.com built a 4 wheel drive Turbo Charged Griffith with an estimated 500 BHP.

Never seen it moving or Heard it running but often seen it parked in his Driveway outside his Workshop.

Saw a twin turbo Griffith last year at Brighton speed trials, it was green.

Really nice guy. Had the conversion done at Courtney's in Norfolk.
