Ford once made a road-legal Formula Ford car with a 1-liter, 3-cylinder, EcoBoost engine. And by made I mean just this one.

Oh, and it did the Nordschliefe in 7:22.

Indeed. Just watched that. The turbo squeels something fierce at low revs.

There was talk once of a small production run but nothing seems to have come of it.

I have seen it once. Very awesome thing. I just wished that Ford would be selling those. It's the best combination of fuel economy and fun.

Some PVC pipes, a leaf blower and head lights can be 'road legal' in the UK

Yes I don't think it would have ever been legal in the US in that form. It was essentially just the race car with some lights and a horn.
