Apparently the one that the seller built is the blue MK2 (the youtube link in the listing) which has also blown up. Such a shame, a supercharged V6 is certainly appealing but for that sort of money and work (full engine strip down basically to fit the decomp plates) I'd want some reliability.
That said, if its not a daily and just a fun weekend car then go for it I say!
Regarding putting a T series in you might gain 20 bhp for lets say £1000 (Engine, gearbox, drive shafts, custom loom etc) With this, if the claims are correct and you can do the work yourself (of which there will be a lot) then you could gain 60 bhp for £2000, look at it that way and it kind of makes sense... until you realize it will probably only last a few thousand miles like the other charged ones have done.
