So I finally got a chance to talk to my bro. about the v8 rx-7. At the dyno it came in at 260hp and like 340ft lbs of torque. Not bad but he said the lack of power was because he had the stock heads on the chevy engine. He plans on adding aftermarket ones soon and it should at least be putting down mid 300 hp. At the dyno he said he saw a mustang saleen (or however you spell it) with only a few mods putting down almost 400hp. And a Honda s2000 with 180hp (not bad) but.... not even 140ft lbs or torque.   <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/laugh.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':laugh:'> That?s Honda for you.
