Re: Fuel economy/Heat recovery
Depending on how much you want to spend, there's a guy on here selling his Carbon Fiber hatch, and hood. We're making Lexan hatch glass, and I'm going to make a windshield.
You could reduce the weight of that car even less than I mentioned before.

You know, slotting in a diesel turbo engine into the 30x would actually be less work than what you're trying to achieve and it would get great fuel economy.

Re: Fuel economy/Heat recovery
There is a diesel engine that bolts up. I can't remember exactly, but Yoda mentioned it a while back.
Found it.
From Yoda; "If you are thinking Diesel I would consider the diesel version of the FE 2.0 used the the 323F (Protege 5) I have been talking to a guy in France for a few years now that is running over 310hp but over 500ft/lb torque all under 4500rpm in a 323F"

Re: Fuel economy/Heat recovery
If it's an FE, it wouldn't be bolt-in, but it would be exactly like the one guy that did an Fe3T swap, same series.fowljesse wrote:There is a diesel engine that bolts up. I can't remember exactly, but Yoda mentioned it a while back.
