Just to put it in perspective, the nice RX-7s on this forum have about $40,000 to $120,000 in them.

If you can make 300hp on a small street ported NA 13B then you need to call The Guinness Book of World Records. As others have posted already, you are looking at about 200hp with a street ported NA 13B.

My suggestion would be to either sell your car and buy a Turbo II as a base to start with, or install a TII drivetrain in your current car. Once you do either of the two, then you can simply install a BNR turbo kit and supporting ghetto modifications and easily reach 300-400hp. Granted, it would be laggy and not very efficient, but then again it isn't going to cost the $20K or so required for a nice setup.

edit: MY GOAL IS 300 BUT 200 OR 250 SET UP PROPERLY WILL MURDER THESE RICERS. I HAVE AN ADVANTAGE BECAUSE THE COURSE HAS 6 TURNS IN IT.

I assume you are talking about drag racing. So how exactly does a 200-250hp 2800lb car murder a 300-400hp 1800lb car?
