Thank you!

We are now starting to fab up the down pipe and getting the ETS intercooler installed and we should be ready for the first start up and break in miles.

We have -4 braided lines with AN fittings and our own crush washer adapter that screw into the block. We will be happy to sale it separate, but it will be coming with our kits in the near future.

Finally were able to get some numbers out of this car! It made 655whp on 27psi using 116 Octane from VP. Unfortunately we had a blip in our dyno and it stopped logging the pull. Just a guess but that number would have been a lot higher if that would not have happened. As many know we have battled with small issues this whole time and have changed a few things on the setup over what we initially built. There is still plenty left to pull out of this car and we are still working to get that number higher. Stay tuned and until then enjoy

Oh and from what we have been told this is the highest HP Rotary powered car using an Adaptronic ECU. That is unofficial of course!

This build and tune was all completed in house here at Addicted Performance Unlimited.

Well we got some final numbers we are happy with for the moment! 705whp@32psi with VP Import 116 octane. This is with a streetport, Stock upper intake and TB. We of course could have pushed it more and got that higher. But we feel for the mods that is a great number.

The record now for a Rotary equipped car with an Adaptronic ECU just went up

Here is a picture of the graph and the car. I will have the video of the car up shortly!
