Supercharged 21 Turbo (J7R) Powered Mid Engine Kit Car
This is the blog for my J7R mid engined kit car project.
The car is built from a tubular steel chassis with aluminium panelling and a fibreglass body. The engine is Mid Mounted and utilises the renault transaxle.
When i purchased the car it was originally fitted with a 2.2 J7T engine which i have removed and am fitting a J7R.
When registered, the car weighed in at 950Kg though i have removed a lot of weight by taking out unnecessary equipment and functionality. The planned completion weight is beween 850Kg and 900Kg, and a power figure over 200hp at the wheels.
Currently, the enigne is destined to be supercharged with a megasquirt controller. A turbo may be re-fitted at a later date if the desired power and torque is not achieved with the supercharger.
BIG Thanks to AndyQuadra who is advising with the technical aspects of the engine., and to "Barry" for the laser cutting.
