Hi
This is my first post here, I have been reading the Faq's and some of the
messages, so here goes my first question:

We all know the old adage "if you throw enough money at it you can make it fast"

My question is what is the most Practical Streetable horsepower I can expect to get out of a normally aspirated 84 or 85 13b transplanted into my 85 GS? and what mods would I make to get that horsepower?

I am just getting back into the RX-7 game, I had a 79, when I was in my 20's, and am
41 now, my friends tell me I'm going through a midlife crisis or second child hood.
O well, I'm having fun

I realize this is a general question, and It all depends on how much you have to spend
("your currency here" per horsepower gain). I'm just looking for some ideas.

slap a tII motor in it and be done. easy 200 hp right there that is very reliable.

 

n/a 13b just intake and exhust I think about 170hp
13b Street Port 220hp
13b Bridgeport 260-280hp
13b Peripheral Port 300-330hp
13b Turbo Stock 180-220hp
13b Turbo modded 250-500hp

something like that

 

Welcome to the forum. 2nd childhood? Im 38 and still on my first. When does the second one begin?

First lets establish a budget. How fast do you want to spend?

 

Hello and welcome to the board. Nothing else to add more than Carl. By the way I am 45 ish and agree with Carl, still on my first childhood.

 

Yes, welcome Your profile sounds like mine. I'm hoping to get to 200hp+ (flywheel) from my n/a 12a.
Good luck.

 

Welcome!

Hope you enjoy your stay.
