gxl vs TII?

Has anyone with a glx or other NA engine beat a turbo in a race
drag/ grip/ drift(even though its not realy racing)?

or is it pretty much impossible without a butt load of cash?

Unless the gxl is ported to the max, there isn't really a chance against a decent TII

then keep it n/a...for now...trying to get even 200whp in an n/a is expensive and a TII with some minor upgrades would be able to take you down for half the price.(if not less, every project has a different price tag)

mos def...
i found a tII engine and trany for a decent price so i hope to have the swap done by next summer.

By the way, my uncle is hela experienced in swaping and tuning mustangs and knows absolutly nothing about rotary engines. Could a person familluar in that area figure it out? Is there a huge difference in swaping engines?

shouldn't be too bad, rotaries aren't held together by voodoo magic or anything just nuts and bolts like everything else, now if he starts tearing into the keg that's when his head'll start spinning
