I am surprised by this quote and it may explain why people are raising how can a blow thu carb set-up without an intercool produce 120hp more than the same engine with efi and an intercooler.. Robert is way out in his estimate of 150hp for a stock Turbo 2, the official figure is 200hp @ 6500rpm. The only exception was the InfiniIV model with the improved[louder] exhaust which gave gave 215hp.


The final hp will depend on the engine Robert used , the high compression NA or the low compression turbo. Adding a turbo to the NA gives far more power for a given boost, but real wear on the seals.

Out of interest there is no Jspec 1991 engine, all 1991 engines had the same spec.and were identical. It would be correct to say a secondhand engine imported from Japan from a scrapped car.

Yes, he got the TII HP est. wrong but I do believe those cars are appx 250hp. You can still make a lot a HP w/o an intercooler and EFI. You just need to up the boost and have enough fuel.

Here's a dyno sheet for the people doubting the HP these cars are making.

Creative as the insult might be I'm still wating for my parts or my 900 dollars to be refunded. I was promised a tracking # a week ago and still nothing except a threatening phone call. Ernie is doing his job keeping people off the forum that advertise without paying and use the forum to handle transactions and don't deliver the product. I use to see Robert as a fellow rotary racer. But now he is just a guy who has held on to my money for 14months and has not delivered anything. The rotary community is very small and we should all stick together unfortunately other people don't feel this way. My race team is completely funded by myself and if I would have known that Robert and his buddies find 14 months exceptable for delivering a product I would have never placed the order.

Sorry to hear about your troubles with Robert. It is fair to post the bad and ugly along with the good to give a fair picture. I'm not taking sides as I have had no dealings with him. However, dont preach to me about what a mod is and isint supposed to do, cause then my friend your talking above your head. And on that note, Im closing this thread as its way beyond any purpose to keep open.
