    Default GT4202 3-Rotor FC RX-7

    So I had the opportunity to go back to Trinidad for a visit this past week. While there I met up with a very good friend and owner of this car.It is a 2nd gen RX7 with a streetported 3-rotor engine and a GT4202 turbo. We took the car for a dyno tune and I snapped some pics. Hope you enjoy them.

    That's a nice build. Steve can definitely tune it.

    And just got the news. Steve Kan tuned it to an amazing 729whp @ 24lbs. This is after a Powerglide was swapped in.

    Hot damn. That's serious power to put down 700+whp through a 5k stall and powerglide.

    Well, he flew well known tuner Steve Kan down to tune the car & Steve did an awesome job. Due to lack of traction on the dyno with those shitty RE050 Potenzas, Steve tuned the car to a conservative 601whp @ 20lbs & 729whp @ 24lbs.
