Suppose that makes sense for plumbing in the intercooler. I personally would use a sleeved shaft could you imagine catching something in that even at idle speed

308bhp last time it was on the rollers which was at tipton garage for a clio shootout.
Its a fair bit lighter than an m3 though of course, and less transmission losses.
