I recently DESTROYED a 240SX, with an SR20DET with a bigger Turbo, Injectors, etc.

It wasn't even funny. They guy couldn't believe it. I had 4 car-lengths, by the middle of third gear.

FWIW, the SR20 is good engine, but not necessarily better than a 13BT.

if you swap a piston in, make it worthwhile
like LS1 or 5.0 or caddy 500

How little you pay attention. The rotary engine is used in aviation. And its set to replace laptop batteries. Runs quite more effeciently. Also some crazy science guy just made a rotary engine that runs on AIR.

Novelty that.

why are you guys all such haters.
some people enjoy doing things a little bit different from time to time.
its called being unique.
an ls1 in an fc isnt anything new. its been done for years.
ive personally witnessed a sr with s15 turbo and a powerfc blow the doors off a zo6 all the while spinning wheels down the freeway.
sr's throw down.
how about someone be helpful for once.
