Yeah looks to be NA. Can be turbod though (or possibly bought with a turbo), the JGM drag racer used the same engine iirc.

pointless conversion unless you plan to spend big money on forced induction like Simon did.

It's certainly never worth nearly £4k and there's also a P1 knocking around with the same engine fitted.

You cant get a 6 cyl flat 4 it would be a flat 6 if it has 6 cyl. Its the engine out of a svx if I'm not mistaken. An weird 80s looking car with windows like a Toyota sera

That's the 3.3 litre EG33 engine from an SVX. 230 bhp as it stands. Simon Roe got rather more out of his.......There is a supercharger kit available from Raptor in Australia for the later EZ30 engine as found in the Outback and Legacy 3.0r spec B. And for na EJ engines too.

The yanks did some interesting H6 conversions; Turbo, supercharged..I think there was one with both - never seen it run though.

There was also a H6 converted rally car by a user on here, it seemed to go quite well.

Eitherway...could it be a more reliable base than a EJ25?
