What VR6 lump is it? 2.8 or 2.9? I fancy Supercharging my Corrado some day, so I'll be interested to see what you opt for.

If you fancy supercharging the vr then there was a group buy on vr6oc that worked out quite reasonable?

There was a quite cheap kit for sale on e38 recently as well :)

Rob - I think the car you are talking about ran a supercharger and turbo on a 1.8 or 2.0 I don't think it was a vr. Was built by somebody tracksport, can't quite remember the name. This is the one I am thinking of:

Sure there is a more recent picture somewhere....

I'm fairly sure I've seen supercharged VR6s.
Would be an even sweeter engine.

Depends on what blue you go for, could be great but I'd save your money for the engine and performance mods first, then think about the colour later.
