Had some family things happen and my Cali trip will be moved to mid June so that's when I'll bring back the Conquest. Will be bringing my 190e home in April from Texas instead.

We're all rootin' for ya.
Welp, I was given for free a 6 speed manual from a Mercedes C class. It was behind a 4cyl car. So, I started looking at supercharged Mercedes m111 engines (2.3 4cyl). Gah they're cheap. Maybe yank the supercharger stuff off and go turbo. If I can muster 300rwhp out of that, I'll be happy. Shouldn't be hard. So that's option number 1 right now.

You're not getting much more out of the blower in these. Turbo'ing them looks to be less work per hp to be honest. But this just option 1 simply because of convenience. I have other options in exploring as well.
