After 13 RX7's, over the last 23 years, it's 20B time...
This Friday my car will start the process of going 3 rotor with a single turbo. If things go as planned the car will be done and ready to make a pass at the track on May 15th...
The heart is a fully built and polished 20B with a T-74gts single turbo hanging on the side. Custom FMIC, custom radiator...lot's of polish will be under the hood. It will be controlled by a Microtech LTX-12. Dual 20B fuel pumps will feed the fuel system.
Some of you may have seen this motor before. It belongs to a good friend of mine who has decided to do a trade with me. He gets my complete setup plus a bunch of cash and i get his complete setup. I will post pics and updates as the project progresses...
Here's a few pics....

i didnt know him that well, just lived in the same town.(new braunfels).
Congrats on the awesome engine. If i can find my video camera I have some old footage of his car @ the track but I think it was w/ his old turbo setup.

She's done...It only took 4 weekends. I drove her out of the garage last Sunday. I am having the new front bumper, hood and East Bear headlights painted to match the car. I picked up the lights and bumper last week and the hood will be ready on Friday. Once i get back in town tomorrow i will pick up the hood and will put it all together on Saturday.
I am going to try and get it to the upholstery shop next week. All the plastic is brand new in the car and the door panels are custom. I am going to have them put a red stitch in the door panels and tranny tunnel cover. I will probably have a custom wrap made for the cage.
Car made 525rwhp at 12 psi on pump gas in Derricks car...everything from his car is now in my car so that power should be good for mid 10's. Next month we will tune the car for 20psi on Q16...looking for 700+rwhp...
