Whats crazy is that about a year ago I was sitting inside this car helping my brother run all the wiring for the switch panel. This car was then owned by the same guy who owns "chucky is back" RX-7, and was sitting in a shop in Philly where it was getting prepped for a 13B-RE set up. The car was then sold and shipped to PR.

1800+ HP right there

. Its interesting where they gained such edge over competition. Many people were allegedly doubting the tuner as he tuned just few 20B´s. Obviously, when you are doing something for very long, doesn´t mean you are doing it right

Hopefully PAC will reclaim the title, just for keeping pushing competition

^Too bad more people don't understand that. Just because you've been doing it wrong for years doesn't mean it is suddenly right today.

it'll be great if it was with 13B-MSP, but it impossible.. other than that it would not be a surprise if it use 3 or 4 rotor which can get more power with that..

ps: not to hi-jack this thread.. can anyone tell me how to post a youtube here? i even follow this thread https://www.rx8club.com/forum/showthread.php?t=173054 but not working for me..

You probably meant "La Fiebre" (Spanish), "The Fever" (English)

"Fiber" is something you eat, LOL.

Anybody do a story on this car? One of the car magazines?

How in God's name do you get 1,400 hp from a rotary? I'm still shaking my head...this thing can almost run with a funny car.

Yea, so how exactly are they extracting all this power, what are they doing so different..how has none of this knowledge passed down through the aftermarket yet ..that we still can't have a thousand BHP less than them in a no-sweat use-every-day reliable kind of way?
