pre man if you just want a turbo then buy a VR6 or something 
The LS1 swap into the RX7 does sound pretty good on paper, but swapping a rotary for pushrod engine doesn't sound right. But because of the unreliability of the rotary, it wouldn't be a bad idea. But it better not change any driving characteristic of the car, because that is its FORTE.

First of all, you are an assshole, how does it feel? secondly, wtf? you dont like my car, deal with it! i love my car and respect your car, try being a little mature.
Thank you for reiterating and making yourself feel better about your car having less potential than a twin turbo car. Can you discuss how it has four wheels and a winshield too?
The RX7 hangles a billion times better than my car, no shhit! Again, who would have thought that my car was ever supposed to handle. If you wanted the better handling version, you should have bought the 1LE. So at a billion times better, it must pull 10g's and do the slalom at 150, damn thats nice!
Oh thanks for the pop-phylosophical idea about "being one" with the car. Since I dont drive your car, you must assume that I have no clue about being one with the car.
Please enlighten me more about what driving and handling is like, yeah cus I have no idea. Why are you so butthurt and acting like a troll? Shouldnt that be my job, but you are the one doing it. Have a problem with me, msg me, we'll talk it over. I bet u have the hugest penis in the world and get all the ladies cus you drive an S2k, congrats!

Dude, I don't think VR6 has ever come with turbo. Buy an SRT4; cheap, fast, easy to make faster.

Man, it was yesterday.
They are good friends now.

But still, I like knocking on his LT1 because he thinks it's god-sent. 
Anyway, the 3rd gen RX7 came out in '93, and even until this day, it's very hard and rare to find a car that could drive like it, including the S2000, which comes very close. When I speak of "drive", I mean handling, road feel, steering response, etc.; basically, you become one with the car.
