Yeah if you want to keep it under 15k no way is a 3 rotor in the picture. Do a search and find out what it actually costs.
If you want to stay under 15k with big power(500hp+) do a BP T88'd(or similar) 13B..

if you need to ask if you should go 3 rotor, then the answer is no, do not go for 3 rotor j/k, yes i think you should go 3 rotor, go to www.pettitracing.com all you need is about $25,000 more and its yours. 40k isn't that bad, i think you should do it, just save up for a little more.

NO way could you get it running at peak preformance at 15 grand unless you do it right yourself. Someone made a spreadsheet of all the stuff you need to make it and have it running properly. Check out the 3 rotor forum.

fart on a friends head!!!
i am not too sure about pettit's 20B setup. my friends and i were looking at it and for 40k you better be able to break into the 9's. i know the banzai setup is suppoed to be more of a "what the factory should've done", but i think that one could do the mods cheaper and with more performance. dont get me wrong, the pettit setup is gorgeous and fast. i am just saying that if somebody else can do it . . . . so can you!

i would hope the reliability is good. id just like to see more options on the the intake for instance. im all about good cai kits. i dont know. i just dont know about spending 45000 on a car that does not run in the 9's. . . at least thats what was noted in the article. . . um i think it was in scc. not sure. they did say, however; that the performance envelope wasnt even pushed yet, so............

Trust me a 3 rotor hall's a$$. I have been in the black 3 rotor that farrell built and let me tell you if tuned right that dam thing will fly no question about that! we were cruis'n in 5th gear and he stomped it and the car got side ways it is a whole lot of power... If you are a good driver and it is tuned well you should have no problem getting into the 10's without a doubt but dont base you whole idea of if it cant get into the 9's it is not worth it!! just remember it has alot to do with the driver aswell.. trust me if ya got the cash go for it...

i have no reason to say it wont get into the 9's. i said that the testing that was seen in the article i read was in the 11's, but they said it wasnt even pushed to its limits. they mustve been afraid. i just dont like the idea that i have to spend 45k to get a car that will only go to the 11's. did i read a bad article? are they wrong? im sure that car is fast, but 45k is a lot of money to spend!! even though, sideways in 5th gear is a very nice feature for that kind of cash. man, thats crazy!! i couldnt even imagine. i would go to the 20b forum and ask if anybody has done the swap successfully and without having to spend that much money. anything can be done cheaper, ya know. . . well, almost anything. hehe

I don't want to sound like a bitch or anything...but peoples sigs are getting WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY too big. I think the rules say it has to be 10 lines or less....
Not that its a really big deal...but a link to a webpage would be nice instead of scrolling 10 pages to get through RIKKI'S mods list
Okay I'll stop bitching now...
BTW, nice mods list RIKKI

I've talked to a guy about this and he said he's ran the numbers and thinks he could build one for around 15k. I don't know if he left out labor or what. That's just what he said. He's been building rotarys for a extremely long time too.
