What? Why would you PP an MSP? Would you seal up the side ports or build a wonky ultra manifold like they did for the Rx8 race cars (with unstable idles)?

To quote a certain guy "this thread is ******." I'm really a little nervous about the pulsing hard thing...

The Rolex cars were 20B PP bridgeports. I don't recall any Renny PP powered race cars.

If you have an extra $6k or so sitting around (on top of the general rebuild etc), and are ok with the fact that it will die in less than 30k miles for no more than a 50HP gain... Don't waste your time. Get a turbo / supercharger, or REW swap it.

My vote is always a rebuild and FI. I'm leaning more and more towards the supercharger every time I think about it .

9k I'm thinking of the Mazdatrix REW/MSP Hybrid. I believe it was in their blue time attack car but that part of the website is down.

Yeah that one made like 400WHP boosted IIRC. Didn't last long of course.
