i was wanting to get the no-piston guy outlook on my thought...i was wanting to maybe drop a 13-b single turbo into my MKIII supra...my supra has no interior...no door panels....no back seats...and no passenger seat...etc...now....im mostly looking to drift in this car...and TQ isnt the biggest thing a car really needs....its the top end which it needs...and i know that 13-Bs are known to have high top in...so would i benefit from dropping a 13-B Turbo into my Supra?

I don't know the weight ratios of the MKIII Supras. They can't be better than a RX-7's. Buy an TII.

50/50 weight ratios arent what you want in a drift car.

How do top end power and drifting go together?

Exactly what I was wondering, I would have thought torque is what you want.

torque is what you want, you want to break those tires loose relatively easy, so keep the 7M, they make good torque,



but if you really dont want torque for whatever reason, get a 1JZ,



or just get a TII if you want a wankel that bad.
