Aeromomentum AM15T TURBO 160HP FOR KITFOX S7 for $17k

[Gflo916]

Aeromomentum peaks my interest. This is a new item from aeromomentum that is a 1.5 L turbocharged engine that produces 160 horsepower. Has anybody considered this for a kitfox series 7? Would this be too heavy ? I have sent a message to aeromomentum regarding this engine fitting in a KitFox and have yet to get a response? Does anybody have any insight into this engine? Aeromomentum states that all their engines blocks are brand new and each engine is blueprinted and build by them in their factory using all new parts. Aeromomentum states their engines are based off Suzuki blocks that they buy from the company directly. I remember reading in the past of a member that used the AM15 non turbo that produces 131hp in a kitfox S7 but I can't seem to find the youtube videos that were posted before.
