remember, this is going to be the demo car for my company, its has to look as well as it performs. and I'm shooting for about 550+ hp when all is said and done, and it has ato be street legal, no emissions here, so just not excessively loud, or undriveable.

I hope your planning on a T2 swap for that power because a turboed NA won't do it.

Vmount?!?!? WHY?!?!?



FMIC's look soooo much sweeter on our cars. If it is going to be a show car, you have to see the shiny radiator



It doesn't really matter about the turbo you are using either. I am running a pretty large turbo and have the stock TMIC for now. Rotaryman88 has the stock turbo with a HUGE Greddy FMIC.

i don't think so, v mount looks awsome, specially with a reverse cowl hood, and not many people have it.

If you can't afford to get a t2 motor then it seems like you are still in lala land.

I'd agree........start selling those N/A's and buy a Turbo II motor. A v-mount would look shitty with a N/A, the two intercooler pipes would end being on the same side of the cooler. In that case consider the $$$$$$$$ you will now need for a custom intercooler, piping etc, etc, etc, etc.

I do believe he's wants to turbo the N/A.



Definitely sell those three N/As and get a motor. If you're going to start a shop, you choould go all out with you car. Even if it will take a while to finish. If y ou take short cuts on your project car people are gonna think you take short cuts on regular jobs.



How much experience do you have with RX-7s or rotaries in general anyhow?
