Or you could just wait for the Porsche's tail to suddenly break loose and wreck. (Did the 79s have that driving characteristic?)

so a single turbo 20b??? what is the potential of this 3 rotor?? I'm sure we all know about that company that does the 4 rotor 23a right?? would it even be worth it to go with that 4 rotor instead of the 3?? personally I think the original 20b would be better

why do these threads always go to crap with some joker with no money talking pie-in-the-sky about a 3 (or 4) rotor engine swap?
no, you won't beat a Viper and you won't beat a 620 hp Porsche either...who gives a ****?
let's get back to reality

450 rwhp my ***...I'd be surprised if that car had more than 360 at the wheels
newer 911s aren't particularly light, either

Six months later a different dream ride. Process repeats. 3 rotor swaps are so expensive you might as well go with another car all together. I have no idea what a 4 rotor would be. I stay well grounded in reality with my 2 rotor.

Seriously, if you want power just go with a gt42r or a greddy T-88. I already mentioned earlier that my t-88 FD is a beast, and yes it beats Vipers.
A 13b if built properly can handle plenty of power, more then you could ever use. I find 455.2whp @ 17psi is already plenty, but with one of these big turbos you have the option of pushing the car to 600-700hp range.
Forget about the 3 and 4 rotor conversions, way too much money and you will never use the potential of the car. Yes they are nice, but realistically the 13b is all you need!

Boy oh Boy, ******** talkin big boy **** like they know the real deal. I'm not about to argue nobody down about nothing. Just cause you don't have the money for a 3 or 4 rotor swap don't mean nobody else does. just deal with having the short end of the stick, bitch. but more about what WE were talking about. I think i'll do the 3-rotor single swap in a couple months....my engine only has 7,000 miles since the rebuild a s.port so i wanna drive it some more. i appreciate all of the input excpet that bs from the haters

A person may have all the money in the world, but without knowledge and experience a serious project like a 20B will be dead in the water.
I have a good friend going through the 20B thing, he is doing it to the hilt, the right way, high end shops, with all top end parts. Expect to spend at least $30,000 in addition to the price of the car, and expect it to take at least 1 year, probably closer to 2 years.

If you want to stomp vipers there are far cheaper routes than a 3 rotor. I would take the money I saved and invest or start a business. Maybe then I could afford for someone else to wrench on my FD. I don't see anyone in their right mind shelling out wads of cash to beat a friend in a 7. I agree with Goodfella. Build it for you. Actually, do everything in your life for you. Why be a slave to other's wants? You have your own dreams to chase.
