I suppose an Ariel Atom isn't too good in the rain, or if you don't like eating wasps - but by fook, they go well!

With bolt on turbo to the kit thats already on there anything up to 450bhp (with rods pistons and valves of course) then with a little more engine work anything up to 700bhp...  :happy2:

ECU side the Grinnal runs an OBR (Ole Ball Racing) ECU mapped by Mahle, Kev has had a spate of mapping some of the bigger turbo Grinnals at the min tho to go out to America  :smiley:

That is the weight of the engine!!! :grin:  Read the PDF document from their website - I think the total car was around 600kg.
