That's why my little 62 American roadster (when I get around to it) will be a 2.3L turbo four and five speed (from a Merkur XR4ti). Price was to good to pass on, and gas isn't getting any cheaper. If I hadn't got a good price on the whole car I'd have been contemplating a remote turbo on a Jeep 2.5L/five speed combo. The electric turbo looks neat, but boost goes DOWN with speed. Starts at 5-6 psi, goes down to 3 psi at higher speeds. Takes to much juice to spin it up at high speeds. I think I'll stick to the remote setup -- can do that with mostly salvaged parts too.
