Properly sorted supercharged M52. Only slightly heavier than an M20 but 350bhp, 350lb/ft which is where I reckon the fun and driveability stops and the keeping it out of hedges begins.

Yep, no power till 15,000rpm and then it will spin you straight into the halfords door whose carpark you were trying to donut in.
For me a turbocharged s14 i think. Nicely balanced with the extra poke it needs

That 4.4 V8 from an E39 540 would do me just fine. Manual box...
E30 Touring 0.35 cD - more slippery than prison soap
