Here's another idea. Get yourself a milling machine, and make a 125cc turbo diesel. Since I don't think anybody makes a 125cc diesel of any kind, you'll have to make all the parts yourself, but imagine the fuel economy. Plus the torque. I think even a 125cc at 50psi would make enough torque to have fun with.

Code:
