Look... Another Fastiva! lol

His car would be fast if he could stop blowing up engines. That much power in such a light car is pointless anyway... if he turned down the boost he could get traction and maybe run decent times. My shitbox is still better

Not right now it isn't... I've got a tiny pea shooter turbo that isn't any good past 225hp.
I think I might sell the car once I get it together again anyway, I've got an RX-7 to play with now.

Eighty fo'. It's a year older then I am (built December '83).
It's got a 13B, but not for long. It dropped a valve, so I'm going to swap an S2000 engine in as soon as I can find one.

oh oh , dont forget you'll also get V-TEC PWR
sry had to do that, but I wish you luck, and Id love to see the build, Iam more instrested in the build and problems you'll encounter than the final product.

What the ****, You mean Rotorys dont have Valves, damn, I didnt know that.
*rolleyes*
say, why do you say a NA 13B can make more power than a F20, stock for stock, it doesnt. now your comparing a highly modified engine to a stock motor, highly unfair if you ask me. tell you what, when your done, and have the final cost of your project, think about the money you spent and think what kind of F20 youd have if you spent the same on the said F20.
BTW- for those who didnt get it, my first post and first comment was sarcasm.

What is cheaper:
To build up an F20:
Buy bigger cams, buy forged pistons, buy stronger rods, sleeve the block, buy cams, buy valves, buy valve springs, buy valve retainers, pay for machine work on the head, buy head gaskest, buy head studs, buy main bearing studs, pay for all the to be balanced past 10,000rpm, buy individual throttle bodies, buy an ITB intake manifold, buy a tuned header, etc - You're looking at $7500 in parts ALONE.
To build up a 13B:
Buy rebuild kit, buy a hole saw to put a nice hole in the rotor housing for peripheral ports, buy tubing to make a tuned runner length intake manifold, buy two throttle bodies (ITB), buy a header, etc It would cost about $2000 in parts.
The F20 would probably last longer, but who knows. That's a whole other topic.
