Looks awesome...That Turbo would look nice in my car :-)

that top one is the BMI Racing 4 rotor 8. i got to sit in it and talk with Sarah and Adam (the folks who built it) for awhile. good times. i think leon and matt have a bunch of pics of it.

Yeah, too bad my NA Renesis is faster than de 4 rotor... :lol2:

The Redbull RX-8 is a four-rotor as well. Not sure about the Nexen car.

You guys are right, that's my bad. I read wrong. His FD was a four-rotor.

Good pictures. The 8's were well represented this year, but did not compete all that well. Hopefully next year we can get some in the top 8 or even higher!!!

Lots of money...

dondo 04-15-2011 05:10 PM

totally worth it!!

pdxhak 04-15-2011 05:14 PM

Add 20% to the price for the current exchange rate. $80k USD for a motor? There are a few cars I'd buy before dropping that much cash on an engine :)

dondo 04-15-2011 05:28 PM

times .8. your math is backwards.

and1kidd 04-15-2011 05:29 PM

2nd that :)

pdxhak 04-15-2011 05:32 PM

haha you are right. Still does not make me want to pay that much :D I'm unfortunately used to the USD being weaker than most countries :(

patrick_andraste 04-15-2011 07:26 PM

They have turbo 3 rotors with more power. The NA 4 rotors make 500-520 hhp

rotomaven 04-15-2011 09:31 PM

that turbo is nice but on a renesis you would blow it sky high trying to push the power that that 20b and the quad rotor are pushing. the redbull quad rotor is the same setup as mad mike and he is pushing 666 wheel at 11psi, and joon maeng has a 20b pushing 600 wheel at 13psi. and as far as kyle mohans rx i would imagine it is similar to maengs. either way it would be nice to have either setup! i am thinking of going 20b when my car is paid off
