race from a 45 mph roll and the roots style supercharged car will lose to a spooled up turbo. from a light i belive the mustang wins. in the 1/4 mile neither car will hit 125 mph, so a race like this doesnt prove much but i love those RX7s. my wife has a nice RX8 but i like that model RX7 , i think it is the best looking car they made.

@rotor13 you forget tuning what cost the most like 3-5k... fabrications, new pully setup, and other upgrades needed... bnr would cost thousands less to put in

[rotor13]

@Tj1056

That they are, but their price to power ratio is negligible since for the same price you can get a mid sized 35R, manifold, and I/C for the same price as the BNR's and with a lot more power potential.

I have not seen BNR's break 430hp.

[Tj1056]

@rotor13 hmm I have been told that the bnr are used for 400whp+

[rotor13]

@Tj1056

There have only been a few to push the BNRs to 400hp.... one was able to make 421hp non-seq on them, but their physical size limits the amount of power they can make because no matter how efficient they can be, they are only efficient to a certain pressure.... the BNRs are much more efficient than the stocks since they use brand new CHRAs and wheels and modified housings, they are only efficient to 21psi and then the same problem with the stockers comes into play.

[Tj1056]

@rotor13 or bnr twins to make 400hp+
