Sounds like youtube garbage claims. Where't he dyno chart.

Nice looking car though whatever he dyno'd.

Interesting to see the single exhaust on the driver's side. Even the rotary engine's exhaust on the pass side.

YOu seriously think if someone went through all the trouble to do a Rotory turbo swap that ALL they would post would be a simple dyno video of the exhaust?

Right. lol

I was actually thinking to get a FD and put in F20/22 into it to make it "more reliable".

I am not aware of anyone have done it before.

I don't hear rotary either.

Also don't hear 700whp. More like 450 lol.



How's that for the new standard. Screw the butt dyno, we are now using............


THE EAR DYNO!!!!!

Seriously though. When I worked at a shop, we dynoed many a high wheel hp car and that sounded more like a car dynoed in too low of a gear, not a lot of power.
