Simply put: What's the highest RWHP seen on a 13b-T in an FD?



Just wondering for kicks. Tried searchin. :P

rfreeman27 01-10-2005 11:45 AM

FD's have 13b-rew's...



there prolly isnt any one person that claims the highest HP number, most of the highest HP cars are drag race cars, many of which dont waste time on the dyno..

rowtareh 01-10-2005 12:01 PM

drag car or street?

Street.



Sorry for the 13b-Rew error. And I would imagine that most drag racers are also dyno queens...I.E. Supra's.



I just read of ~600RWHP in an FD and was wondering what the limit was...

Fe3Boost 01-10-2005 01:42 PM

I am going to say the Abel Ibarra has made the most on a 2 rotor something like 700 plus and he is for real but could not get it down the strip very well. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...DIR#>/cool.png

How do you figure?



My car should pump out 600+ without pushing the car too hard (i have LOTS of compressor lol) and it's still a 'street' car. where i'm going with this is, this question is impossible to answer. I could swap the alcohol race motor into my 'street' car and go out and make 900 HP.



demetrious made 740rw on gas, thats one of the highest i've seen, but im sure there are tons of other high HP cars out there.

jspecracer7 01-11-2005 08:33 PM

KSP FD did a dyno with 900+ PS. I believe that PS and HP are close enough to assume that 1 PS = .99999 HP.

Well, as you just said originally, most of the High HP cars are drag cars. And with that, I understand that most drag'ers are more concerned about more HP than anything else.



Whereas a track car (as most FD's are driven to be) needs the right HP, at the right rev's, plus a whole idea of tire, suspension, drag, etc. The concern isn't only HP.

rfreeman27 01-12-2005 02:30 PM

Sorry, you dont make much sense. Drag racing cars that make really high HP are the ones MOST concerned with suspension, aerodynamics, TIRES, etc. There are sssso many other factors to running fast times besides a lot of power. Most people think it's just high HP and a decent driver and you can run low times. There are so many factors that i guess people that dont drag race wolnt see. Having alot of HP is nice, but if you cannot control that power then it is useless!



I guess you missed when I said that most serious high HP cars DONT waste their time on dynos.



Sorry if i seem edgy, but you are very snobby on the boards towards new people. and imo this is a noob question!

LOL Noob? Okay. It was just a "I was pondering" type question. I can understand how it may sound like a newbie question.



I know and definitely understand how it takes more than HP to get down the line faster. I'm sure most of those Supra owners are concerned with what they have on the rear wheels, suspension work, all to hook up better despite IRS "Squatting" vs. a domestics solid rear.



I read where you said most serious high HP don't waste their time on dyno's, yet I beg to differ, perhaps hanging around on SF has spoiled my take on it, but it seems that most of the "big boys" running 700rwhp or more always have their dyno sheets and specs on hand. Most of them are 1/4 mile guys as well...so go figure.



I don't think I am snobby to anyone at all, even the newbies! In fact, anyone new thats in the area I have asked to come on over and I'd give em a ride and talk FD stuff with! I only played with one kid asking about the weight of the hood, and it was all "GenD" type fun.



So I apologize if I seem rash, I never meant for it to read that way.

Supra people are different then rx-7 people. Every really high HP car i have seen doesent really dyno all the time, their time is spent racing!

Yea, I can understand that. I really asked out of curiosity, not to prove a point to anyone. As I read of 4-600rwhp in FD's, I wonder where it ends...that's all. HP/Weight ratio is key, so seeing anything remotely high in an FD is impressive nonetheless.



I still don't like that I sound snobbish, i guess the difference between "teasing", joking, or being sarcastic is sometimes against my favor. I apologize to anyone that has read me that way. Anyone who's seen me/met me at the local track knows any "Car smack talk" I do is just for kicks.

rfreeman27 01-12-2005 05:52 PM

ah thats the problem with the internet, sarcasm is hard to detect sometimes! I have no hard feelings for you man, this is just a kinda impossible question to answer..

Really? Cause with the Mr2's and Supra's there was a strict answer "Blah blah has the highest HP street Mr2/Supra at xxx rwhp" that's what I figured I'd get here in a response or so... https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/smile.png

No flames from me pal. You learned your lession about numbers and "it should make" did'nt you Dave?



Forum talk is 99% BS anyways keep on posting.



I am not saying 600 hp is not a real number but it is not as easy as you make it out to be. REGARDLESS who YOUR tuner is. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/blink.png

I posted info on this car before, but when the server crashed the post was wiped out. It is running 790ps on high octane pump gas and drag races in the Pro Street class. And yes it is driven on the street somewhat regularly.

Are you ******* kidding me!!!?!?!? THE ONLY CAR BROKE DOWN IS YOUR POS RX8 THAT HAS BEEN TO THE DEALER LIKE A MILLION TIMES!!! https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...1047683785.gif https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...1047683785.gif https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...1047683785.gif



Let me refresh your memory on my car since your **** is all jacked up. I took my car off the road to swap in a single turbo kit. There have been problems with the kit and I have been slowly but surely getting them all worked out. Then I sold my power Fc that I bought to get a AEM. Delayd but not forgotten. Come summer time my man you will be eating crow and there is nothing you can say or do to keep that from happening. My car has never at any point during this mod been broken, meanwhile your piece of junk bananna has been breaking down since DAY ONE!!!! So before you go rattleing your chain about how my car is broken down. You need to understand that there is a HUGE difference in a car that is taken apart for upgrades and a big shiney pile of **** that breaks so often you could set your ******* clock to it! You have had more loaners than Paris Hilton on prom night https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...1047683785.gif Even after we get this turbo on your car it won't make **** all worth of power and you know it. After the 32k for your rx8 and the 6k in mods that you have spent on it is long forgotten, you will still be lucky to be making the power that your old Rx7 made for less than half the cash. WHO IS THE RICKY NOW? You built a car that "might" beat a stock Fd for twice the cash, way to go you add wizard!!!! https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/bigok.gif

My dune buggy will probably beat your RX8 and I haven't even bought one yet.
