Its silly but kinda cool. I was thinking... put a 2.0L LNF in a 3rd gen.

the lnf is the sky redline/ solstice gxp turbo engine, makes 260/260 stock, and around 290/315 with GM stage 2 tune. fwd versions were in the cobalts and hhr SS. but only the skys and gxps were rwd with a 6spd(i think) auto.

i had an 08 SKY redline with the tune, hard IC piping, bigger IC, gmpp air intake, and magnaflow catback. thing was fast and fun.

...so why not? it would be light and more powerful than the stock tpi engines. the whole direct injection and wiring compatibility would be the headaches to overcome.
