Okay, i know on the RX-8 they couldn't get the horsepower down because it varied from car to car,so i know whatever anyone says isn't going to be very accurate, but it's at least a start...

I have a 13b N/A with Weber side draft 48 ida, mild streetport, 3mm apex seals, RB header, and true duals all the way back to some ebay mufflers in the back in 2.5 inch piping (yes, too loud)...

and for my ignition, i have 2 MSD Blaster SS coils, going to the distributor in 8mm wire then to the sparks with 7mm wores with NGK sparks....

and my Drivetrain i have stck everything except an XTD Stage 3 Clutch....

What do you suspect down a 1/4 for a descent driver? Also horsepower?

Thanx!

 

There really is no way to truely know unless you have it dynoed and time slipped....anyone can guess but rx7 TII come off the line 200 hp Stock. As far as time......who knows....depends on the day, the track, and the person who driving it.

 

with stock or mild street ports and no forced induction you will be under 200 FWHP with that set up.

And the blaster coils are a waste of money on that system. No need for anything but stock coils unless you are using lightend rotors that are hitting +7500 RPM consistently or using major boost. And you probably are loosing high end power and spark control anyway just by using a Dist.

 

14's on a good day. Not enough information to make it very easy to guesstimate.

 

You mena only cause he's using a dizzy right? Running CDI box on even a weak N/A setup with the CAS can only improve high end right?

 

heh for a 14.9 I think it would require a launch from heaven, REALLY cold outside, perfect shifts, probably some weight reduction.....

 

just take $55 dollars out of your pocket and do 3 dyno pulls and know for sure

theres a way to upgrade your ignition system if you're interested, and that way uses used parts to be cheaper....

 

yes and no, the problem at higher speeds with an dist is that the spark can arc, the shaft can flex, the timing can drop back, the contact arc can start breaking up (usually because of heat from resistance) and a couple of other things. Usually I personally won't recommend a Dist on any engine that spends time above 5500 RPM (and I am sure there are others that will disagree with me- but that is their issue not mine).

So running a CDI helps the coil(s) keep up at high RPM, but does nothing for the firing control where a distributer falls flat on its face.

 

150-160 at the wheels i bet

 

I hit a 15.3 on stock ports !.

 

To me that sounds pretty fast for an NA, especially since I did 15.3 on stock everything with dry rotted tires and a 2.4 60'. But I drive a TII. Apples and oranges.

 

sounds to me almost like he's using a pre 86' 13b like out of a gsl-se or something. If that's so then he isn't making much for power. The stock ports on a se are pretty small compared to second gens. Also the rotors are pretty damn heavy. His set up might make some pretty good torque if it is a gsl-se engine.

What makes you think that?

 

nope, 87 GLX. so it's definately the 2nd gen 13b and streetported.
