Just looked up the MR1. Seems like a perfect motor for a conversion. Already dry sump and EFI. Already built with a gear box on it so it has a good mounting flange for one of the PSRUs that are already available. Will the SkyTrax bolt right up to this, minus the existing gear box of course. The existing gear box is 1.47:1 to get the impeller speed down to 5krpm or so. Seems perfectly configured in the crate. Seems there are a lot of them out there for small dollars comparatively.
140hp out of 1 liter and seems the community thinks it is conservatively tuned. There are people putting on super chargers as well and they seem to be holding up. The bike version of this engine is 10krpm with different cams, head, intake, exhaust etc. Always thought PWC engines were the best candidates due to tight engine compartments and heat extraction needs as well as they need to run inverted and at all kinds of crazy g forces off plane.
