How empty does this look!.....

How empty does this engine bay look.  A Non-turbo FD3S!!

[Warthog]

Oh that is one sad engine bay.:eek

[sadgoth]

now if it was PP\'d that would be a different matter

[Warthog]

Now thats better.

[Dominic]

I like it. Wonder what power it puts out.

Would look better with twin or quad throttle bodies though + Microtech + loads of injectors and big fuel rail.

[Kevin]

Did Mazda actually produce a non turbo FD? or did this guy just decide to bin the turbos?

[mullins]

now if it was PP\'d that would be a different matter

but 3


or 4 rotors?


:Giggle

[Kevin]

OMG!

:2eek :god

[kermit]

Call me greedy, but I will have 4!!!!  That is a seriously sweet engine bay.

[Warthog]

What power, 1/4 mile times etc does that 4 x , do.

[Dominic]

Yeah, more rotors, more, more, more

I just love the look of N/A engine bays.

[Fish]

At least it wont have many problems running.

They look lovely to work on! Sure a triple rotor NA would have decent power?

What power, 1/4 mile times etc does that 4 x , do.

I\'m guessing here but 4 rotor peripheral port = 500+ hp easy (based on a 2 rotor PP producing at least 250-300hp)

Add on Microtech/Motec, decent throttle bodies, decent exhaust, decent manifold, fuelling, etc cant see why 600-700hp shouldn\'t be possible, just look at the 787b!

Imagine 8 second 1/4 mile would be a reasonable target to aim for in a lightweight drag car setup. There are some good vids of a 4 rotor N/A PP car on Streetfire.net

Hey that give\'s me an idea - with all that room surely you could squeeze in a turbo........hell why not two! :Thumbsup!  (I could have worked for Mazda! )


Sad if its not ported - all of 150Bhp (ish) and no torque to speak of!  They better have made the rest out of fart! :Giggle
