Yep, 350 wheel, but I garantee the turbo had more in it. Too bad it let go before I went for a 400 HP charge.

The real question is, what internals are you guys running to make that kinda of power?

I kind of want the best of both worlds (I know its near impossible, especially with a rotary) but some what reliable (motor not going to blow up ever 6 months), powerful setup. Yes I know a V8 would be a "easy" way out, but I don't want to go that way. I want to build this car to show people what a rotary can really do.

It would also be sweet to make full boost at about 4500-5000 rpms... mmmmm can't wait.

Stupid question, why are all you guys suggesting going with a V-mount? Perhaps you could refer me to a thread to enlighten me why. Thanks!

I'm running S5 rotors/housings/irons/RX8 stationaries/FD corner springs and OPR/solid corner seals and atkins apex seals. My motor is a halfbridge, sure it's not necessary for "only" 400hp but it can't hurt and I want more power allready!
Greddy TD07-25A (BIG mitsubishi turbocharger, good for many many horsepowers!)
Greddy FMIC, 3" piping all the way through
3" single exhaust (shoulda went with a 3.5" oh well)

No idea how much power it is going to make but I can't see this setup properly tuned making less than 400whp. We'll see soon enough I guess



Reliability has very little to do with the motor as long as it was properly built, it's ALL in the tuning.

4000RPM in what gear?

Stock internals will work fine... If you wanted to go all out you could get them cryo'd or Cermet coated...

This car better not see less than 100 octane (which you can get unleaded). race gas is cheap compared to the time and money needed for a rebuild.

of course there are people who do 400+ on 93, and 100 octane doesn't save you from going lean due to tuning problems, but it will give you that extra piece of mind.

TB porting, Match porting the LIM with the UIM, Water jacket porting, 3mm seals, race bearings, dowel pins.

IMO the whole idea of a street port is to keep it mild and smogable. With a standalone and 400-500 hp your not going to pass smog, so you might as well go with race port and get something out of it, and maybe even a little loap!

I should mention that I don't need to pass smog so I could care less. lol... I just figured to go with a large street port inorder to have a high flow efficiency, while retaining streetability. Remember my overall goal for this car is to have a damn quick STREET car, a bridgeport, or P-port just doesn't have the streetability I want.

Some really interesting advice so far guys, keep it coming!

Edit: Also wouldn't running water injection allow me to run 93 octane? Running 100 octane for a street car is just not practical lol...

How can you say that unless you've had first hand experience with one? Untill you build yourself a Bridge Ported motor you cant cay its not streetable, especially if you dont have to pass smog.

you can street a bridge or partial P (never seen anyone street a full P)
and you get faster spool, more power, (and the better sound track )

as for pump gas, no reason you cant run pump. just get someone good to tune it.

A bridge I guess wouldn't be completely ruled out, I just figured the car would be ALOT more streetable with a large streetport. It would be cool if I could find a freshly PROPERLY rebuilt engine for sale, I just wouldn't want to try to do a bridge myself as a first time porter.

I hope you didn't pay more then $100 for that "HKS" intercooler, cause it's an eBay special that someone sprayed with black spray paint.

HKS does not spray their intercoolers with that font.

streetporting can add up to 20% or more(if done right) to your peak horsepower if you want to believe that or not. just ask j-rat what he thinks now.

Heres what I know about the intercooler (from the seller):
Features & Specs

Front Mount Intercooler
All TIG Welded 6061 Aluminum, polished end tanks
100% Vacuum Brazed Core
High Efficiency Bar & Plate Construction
Inlet/Outlet: 3inch
Max Recommended PSI: 25psi
Tested CFM: 1020 CFM
Fin Pitch: 15 Fins/Inch
Four Threaded Universal Mounting Points
CORE Size: 600 * 300 * 76 mm ( Core Size )
780* 330 * 76 mm ( Whole Size ) 3"inlet

But I can tell right off the bat there is one thing wrong with those specs, the inlet/outlet = 2.5" which sucks because I can't run all 3" piping with it....

I'll give you a hint:
HKS does not sell bar-n-plate IC cores.

Here are the available cores from HKS USA...

Endtanks...
http://www.hksusa.com/products/?id=726

You'll notice that HKS does not sell the cores and endtanks welded.

^^^ double pwned.

Also: did i hear that right? that 590hp NA 4 rotor only had 365 ft lbs? isnt that a bit odd? also did anyone see the huge cloud of smoke from the 1st shift on the track? he must suck at tuning that thing.

Well it is a 4 rotor, using alot of fuel, no matter how you tune it Im sure youd get some smoke
