That has to be insane to drive

Mini Tec built the non-GRM, non-project car version, except in a classic Mini shell. That thing hauls.

I read "needs alternator" as "you have no hope of cramming an alternator in here because engine is squeezed between strut towers so I'm bailing on this project"

Why would you choose the most turd v6 ever offered?

222hp/205lb-ft isn't bad from a DOHC 3.0L of the eighties, so I'm not sure why you'd say it was a turd.

Mitsubishi 6G72

Toyota needed VVT-i to make that much power with their 3.0 V6 and it's a motor that some have expressed love for in the past.

The original SHO V6 made similar power and it's also lusted after by many.

So what makes it a turd exactly?

Not mention there is a turbo variant that can make ungodly power.
