Ls swaps are very common, a supercharged ls in an evo, not very common. So, yes innovative the fact that he took an awd drive car and converted it to rwd to utilize an ls engine is amazing. The fact that they(the foreign speaking individuals in the video) took one of their own vehicles and chopped it up to put an american based product in it, is saying a lot about the performance of an ls engine. They could have very well thrown more boost at its original turbo 4cyl or put a bigger turbo on it but they didn't. You should be happy as a car enthusiast/f-body owner that they are using the same engine for all the high power projects that you have in your car but didn't need to do a swap to obtain it.
