i went to 3 engineers and they old said no once they saw the exctent of the cutting made to fit the 600x300 cooler, taht and the turbo and stuff ect so yeah, and TUFSIG is my main car that ive built and it deserves a motor that makes more the 200rwkw :)

Just noticed another difference between the later Sigma and Scorpion.

The Radiator support panel is removable on the Sigma, but not on the Scorpion

makes it a lot easier to remove and replace the motor.

A digi is running JET 51G too. they primative, but very easy to use and tune. . if you know them. took me 2 mins with mine to fix up the terrible cruise problems and the idle issues that JET 51G had, and the computer was fully tuned hahaha. i know them backwards. my first turbo siggie ran one and i used one on my red GJ scorpion when i injected it. so if you have any probs or questions, ask away :) and when you get a better ecu for the tuff girl, sell the digi to me hahaha.

i have another spare for kermit, the green GE scorp which will be turboed very soon, but they are very cheap/easy computers to turbo a car with :)
