Hello Everybody!
New to the board, but I just love SKY, Sol looks more like a Miata "Girly" car but SKY is a nice modern design.. Of course they are the same car but anyways
Do we know for sure that SKY would have plastic panels? Would be cool
So some people worry it's not fast, first of all it has all bases to be a real sports car -
RWD
IRS
ALUMINUM parts (suspension)
etc..
Upgrading the engine for power could be done on a Civic so don't worry,
simple bolt ons and GM ECU tweaks should get it to 200 hp (peak) and to 6.9 0-60 14.9 1/4 mile?
But I hope that there is enough space in the engine compartment to fit GM/Toyota supercharger kit for 2.2-2.4L and we are talking 250+
I would say with supercharger 5.9 13.9 times are possible.
If anybody has pics of Sol/SKY engine compartment post them here..
EDIT:
Looks like there is some space for a supercharger. That ugly intake has to go!

EDIT 2:
No space for a supercharger?
Thank you,
