Ok, this guy is claiming he has a 500rwhp rx7....wtf? Street drivable, confirmed by another member of their board, who also has also ridden in the guys dodge viper. He said the rx7 was much faster according to the butt dyno-meter. If he has 500rwhp cool, but I doubt it, and why lie?

Why is 500 rwhp seem to unbeliveable..



Ask Soul Assasin about his FC he had..620 rwhp...

If the guy really has a viper, im sure the money to mod a RX-7 is a drop in the bucket for him.

No one lies on the internet so he must be telling the truth.

Because you'ed almost have to run race fuel to keep from grenading engine after engine with the kind of boost needed to obtain 500rwhp. Its possible, but not believable on pump gas on the street. Several guys are into 600rwhp, but keep in mind its with race fuel and 30+psi with a huge turbo.

why is 500 hp unresionable? dave has 452 on tiny ass turbos and a stock IC

94touring 10-28-2002 08:22 PM

This almost needs to be moved to the single turbo section now. I've seen tons and tons of dyno sheets and seen probably hundreds of "big boy" setups, and i've never seen 500rwhp on a pump gas street driver. You see 500+ when you get into t-66 and larger turbos running 20+psi minumum, not exactly suitable for the street. Who was it that got 475rwhp running 22psi, water injection, heat range 10 plugs, cdi igntion, and I believe a to4s turbo on pump gas?

94touring 10-28-2002 08:23 PM

Besides, unless you have drag slicks to support that power, its not really going to feel fast spinning sideways in the opposite lane.

Yeah I asked him to post his setup or email me. I'm not trying to come across harsh to the guy, but i'd like to get the facts straight. If someone accomplishes a great feat like that, i'd like to know how and so would many of you.

They were putting a rotary into a mini.

1Revvin7 10-28-2002 08:45 PM

got a link to where he boast about the car, that place is kinda big.

94touring 10-28-2002 08:49 PM

whoops, I guess that would help

He didn't say a whole lot, just he took a guy for a ride in his 500rwhp rx7. I just assumed it was on pump gas unless he fills up with race fuel, I hope he post his setup or emails me.

SoRRoW 10-28-2002 09:12 PM
