Max,
Have you driven a Backdraft or any other Cobra (replica or original0? The reason I ask is I can't imagine what would happen in a turbo charged car when you stomp on the gas, get a turbo lag and the power kicks in! Unless you are going in a very straight line, your will most likely see the back end of your car coming around you! Next is an out of control spin where you will be lucky if you don't hit something. I would recommend spending my money on a high horsepower naturally aspirated engine. Believe my you will have PLENTY of power.
You are a pretty young guy and it seems your generation loves turbocharged cars. OK I suppose on a Japanese rocket, but not so cool on a Cobra. Not because of the technology, but because of handling as I mentioned above.
Just be careful what you build!
