i\'ll give it a few more hours.........
400 BHP - 650 KG\'s = 616 BHP Per Ton of Rotary Power

That\'s the way to do it! :Thumbsup!

I voted 1501 or over..

Sure the standard 13B weighs nearly the same as a small block V8...

I\'d say just over 1401 Kg\'s - given that a stock FD with 13B-REW is between 1150-1300 depending on what\'s in the car  - you\'ve got an extra housing, more pipework for the exhaust (heavy) and for the throttle bodies, plus being a 20b you are going to need bigger tubby, bigger pipes, rad etc. - Plus there\'s more coolant in the engine - LOL.  That\'s my logic anyhoo - I\'d say 1435Kg\'s on the nose. :Thumbsup!

Only coz of its size... If the V8 was compact like the 13B it wud be handy to lift too...

can i just mention its a 3 rotor not a V8,  not sure where the V8 comes into it.
400 BHP - 650 KG\'s = 616 BHP Per Ton of Rotary Power

That\'s the way to do it! :Thumbsup!
