I dont think so....... https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...DIR#>/wink.png

yeah i dunno either, every time they come out with a new motor its more expensive, dont hold your breath. it would be really cool if they offered it in crate form, they could do it for 3-4k and make money.

Even if people could get the motor they'd have to get something to run it. I'm sure that the port timing, etc. will be way off from the old 13B's. I say just get a 13BT, etc. You'll spend less money to get 250 HP.

The motor is definitely a good step forward, but I'll stick with what I have and let other people do the testing. :P

Yeah..where did you get that article about an turbocharged Rx8 making 360bhp? If the engine isn't too expensive then i might be considering puttin the Rx8 n/a engine into my FC3S. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...#>/biggrin.png
