Rob Dahm hits 928 hp with his 3-rotor FD
 
I wish he'd discuss more of the technical details – hard to say if this kind of build has any kind of endurance. This is a short one:

I believe that three rotor was the one built for the previous owner (TurboTommy). The engine was built by JPR Imports, locate in South Jersey. Even Jim (owner of JPR) doesn't know how the motor has survived this long!

At what PSI and what type of gas?

TwinCharged RX7 05-07-18 11:25 PM

I'm pretty sure that engine was rebuilt already. There are posts that show a bunch of shoddy work from when he first bought it from turbotommy that he had to fix early on.

I'm curious about Dahm's transmission and clutch...

New radiator:

Well I know the trans is a T56 magnum. There are a YouTube videos about this and I am sure they mention the clutch as well.

Rob's 3 rotor wasn't around for a while on his channel. Maybe because of a rebuild?

Looks like T56 magnum.

Its all just a back and forth attention stunt between that and the 4 rotor that hasn't been put together. Its not about the car...its views, following and status.

Don’t act like that doesn’t stop you from watching his videos :rofl: I won’t lie I watch his stuff. That 5th gear in the half mile is nasty. I’m sure the four rotor is being worked, but I wonder if he’ll have it at seven stock or something.

Uh, I don't watch the videos. I lost all interest when he took a roller with a mock 4 rotor engine in it to sema to show off. Between that and the whole pitch to have everyone else pay for it after the how to make enough money to own a lambo stuff its too lame for me to be into, but to each their own.

A nice update on the 3-rotor FD:

Tightening the nut behind the steering wheel - never a bad upgrade :icon_tup:

Bro needs to use a little of that YouTube money to buy himself a real trailer.

I was thinking the same thing when I saw that Uhaul. But then I got thinking about the videos I've seen. I don't think he has the space to store it. Probably can't leave it outside the shop due to theft and I don't think he has any space at his house.
