Has anyone done are partial PP? Anyone have yet? I have seen in some japanise mags where they sell the rotor housings and a custom cut LIM. They go for around 200,000 yen and up. What type of power would they make, and how hard would it be to tune? Sound like? I am sure that with a street port and a big exhaust port you could make some monster #'s.(with all the extra hardware of course) I'll try and load some pictures.

go to the other forum and search for a post by a guy name "initialDFC" i think. He had a 13b-rew in his FC with a partial PP. I think he blew it up tuning but there are some pics of his setup previous to the kaboom.

Ito's motor, from what i remember was an all-out drag racing motor, not a street motor. PP's and partial PP's would be a pain in the *** to drive on the street.

I agree completely. I'm currently driving a PP/E.F.I on the street's and It's a bitch sometimes. And not to good on fuel.

It is never cheap to go fast, why are people so scared to go Partial P or even BP. Those to setup with give you monster power! I know but they dont last! What high power/boost RX7 last 50,000 miles even 30,000? Very few. If you want more power driveablity and reliablity are lost.
