Yes, it was 710 RWHP. There's actually a video of the dyno run on the web.

You can actually buy the video, its option's rx7 special, it has the scoot car trying to brake 200mph on a public road in New Zealand, and it does, i think it was 326kph which is over 200, anyway, it was 710hp on the dyno, plus there are alot of other kewl rx7's on the video, like re amimiya's super g rx7, NICE

Did you know that they use a Power FC on the SCOOT car. It's in the new Option Magazine. There is a bunch of dyno sheets on shop cars in Japan. The SCOOT car made 597ps on 1.7kg of boost.

I've heard that too.
Too bad the PFC support sucks *** in North America.
I'm going single and am kinda torn on whether i should keep the PFC or go haltech...
If I had known all the garbage i'd have to deal with regarding the PFC i don't think i would have bought it in the first place.

If you want to run more than 17.5 PSI and can't get the boost control unit you're better off with the Haltech.

Post the VCD to a newsgroup or ftp site for us :-)
I think I read that the SCOOT engine used partial peripheral ports with some crazy custom manifold.
