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?

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.

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?
