We've successfully installed a Mazda 3-rotor Rotary engine into this car! Rotary people know this engine as the 20B, it is a 1.962 liter engine with sequential twin turbos. This engine was originally made for the Mazda Eunos Cosmo, we picked up a model year 1990. This yields about 300HP, and 297ft-lb of torque at 3300RPM.

nice!

Ditching the lame Renault 4-banger in favour of a sweet 20B I can understand, but why paint the stainless steel bodywork?

They had to remove it along with Mr. Fusion in order to make it street legal. But they kept the flight package. Shhhhh! Don't tell anyone!
