I dont have a dyno but Im guessing 200hp. Just rebuilt s5 na with new seals and all. A street port hks intake and racing beat exhaust. 5th and 6th ports working great. A strong power band from 5g-8g. What do you guys think

 

200 at the wheels?

Uh...no.

Try more like 150...

^^^Yea i think like 145 to 155hp

 

I think 145-155 is extremely low, considering I made 150rwhp with a street port and stock exhaust: https://www.rx7club.com/time-slips-dyno-128/my-1989-na-dyno-quarter-mile-info-702674/

 

my S5 TII with a full RB exhaust running 10psi made 199.x hp to the wheels.

 

Is the stock 160 at the flywheel then. Then 150-160 is about right

 

It feels like 200 though but the car being so small 100hp would seem fast.

 

137.4rwhp.

 

Speed = hp - weight
Either increase your HP or reduce weight for speed.
1300 kgms will feel different than a pickup with the same power

 

thanks all. It runs fast enough for me, just curious

 

what are your plans for the car?

 

Ill probably sell this one. I miss my convertible I sold and then bought this one to work on. Im keeping my eyes open for a convertible to turbo to keep for good.

 

lease it as is then. You don't need *****-to-the-wall hp to enjoy the 7. The NA is plenty fun, just be careful with the verts. We recently had a forum member roll one with the top down. His survival instincts are pretty damn good too, I do n't know how he did it.

 

I have had rx7s for ten years and by now ive calmed down a lot. I just want a cruiser now, but want to have the power in case a honda is near by.
