hehe... here is my other air cooled rear engined flat six turbocharged motor:

The original Turbocharged aircooled pancake six

I've had this car for fifteen years or so and have been slowly restoring it.

I thought perhaps some of you young whipper-snappers may have never seen a Corvair... much less know that some of them came with turbochargers.

There was a choice interview that appeared in Car and Driver in its coverage of the very first IROC series in 73/74. A disgruntled driver (one of the Allisons, I think) referred to the 911 RSs being used as "overpriced German Corvairs", or something to that effect.
