Sorry to say but you could push that N/A from an LS1, still manage 27mpg, and not worry about it breaking everytime you turn the key, and heck, I can think of three Hondas on this site that are pushing well over 500whp. Oh and I know the rotary, I drove mine till that sucker blew, I was a fun little motor but it has so many disadvantages.Originally Posted by BID BAD 13-B

A boosted LS1 is no more reliable than any other boosted motor. Turbos = higher level of heat = increased chance of detonation. Either a 13B or a LS1 can make good power.Originally Posted by Undertow
Bring a boosted LS1 out to play with this little 1.3L....

Good points, mine is not going to be boosted, I'm perfectly happy with 500rwhp N/A and running low 10's/high 9's.Originally Posted by David88vert
I wouldn't even try to race whatever that motor is going in.![]()
Let's put that motor up against this one (in an FD). It would be one helluva race.
