If you just want to be different for the sake of it, how about a decent engine and then grow grass on your roof?

Lots of time and money on your hands, and thick skin to be laughed at for wasting both when it makes less than a std Rs Turbo lump
Don't bother, it will be shit. DIfferent would be an interesting engine, not somthing shit made slightly less shit at great expense...
Not being nasty, serious, but if you want somthing fast start with somthing fast in the first place...
