Acosta Racing is a tuning company. They took a 3 rotor 2.0 liter rotary and swapped out out 1.3 liter 2 rotor. The 20b is also twin-turbo. They tuned the crap out of it and it makes about 900 horsepower. I don't have any links handy, but run a search for acosta racing and you'll find a few threads about it. I think the swap costs 25 grand or so

I think the Acosta Racing car was about 600 whp w/o the nitrous. With the nitrous it was around 900 crank hp. They took on a 911 TT that was running about 800 hp. I'm not sure what ever happened for that race off.

Here is a 700+ rwhp turbo 13B: http://www.rxtuner.com/articles/GroundZeroFD.pdf
I would gladly settle for half of that.
