What I want to know is why the hell you'd put a 26B into a BMW and not a Mazda...

as if there would be enough room to fit the 26b in a mazda anyway--as far as engine bay is concerned...let alone everything else that youre gonna have to put in there to not blow the engine every trip down the strip. and i am pretty sure the ibarra rx8 (right?) has more powah than that...

Based on 1/4mile performance then the most powerful will have to go to Abel.
It takes about 1600hp to do 211mph in the 1/4 and 1500hp to run 6.70's at 2300lbs.

Thumbs up siguel racing

a couple of years ago when siguel had the red 3 gen he was pushing around 980 hp with a single turbo setup ,im remeber been in salinas speedway and i saw the firts 6 second pass that he ran,so it only took around 1000 horses to get the car to sixes so im going with siguel(NUMERO UNO)
