Default Wildest LSx conversion
Who here thinks what is the wildest LSx conversion? Personally, I'm leaning towards WRX.

Are you sure it wasn't a GSX-R1100? Those motors were oilcooled and that's what Gixxerkart used. It still doesn't top a gokart with a turbine or turbofan. http://www.turbokart.com
