www.ebaymotors.comI saw a 88 Rx7 V8 on ebay motors and it just burns me up that damn traitor. He claimed 3x's the torque and 2x's the hp then the stock 88. What would something like that run in a 1/4? I want to know if a FD could take a conversion like this?

a lightly modified fd will have 2 times the hp as the 88 rx7........ i dont know about torque though..... but you're f'in up the weight distribution and the integrity of the rx7

That is a very clean engine bay though, i can respect that.



I wonder how many driveline parts hes gone through when "the kids in their Mustangs, Z-28s, VTEC Hondas, etc pull along-side and and wonder if the "RX5.7" decals on the front fenders are just for show. All doubt disappears when the light turns green!!"
