I wonder what motor the RX-7 had in it. Sounded like a V8.

I've seen rx7s with v8s shoehorned in before... pretty sick! BTW, I watched the first video again: besides the fact that it's an SRT4 (the title says silver_evo) it also says in the title "stock rx7"... 11.6 @ 120 stock rx7 genII I thought that was funny.

And the fact that the yellow Evo trapped at 90mph means something was clearly wrong with the car. This kid is even worse than I thought... I wonder if he really is so delusional that he believes what he's trying to pass off as fact?

Someone should tell that guy that it's not cool to hit the rev limiter in every gear.

i baught my evo used and ran a 15 flat with intake TBE and EBC. i made about 215hp on a mustang dyno. i had a tuning issue from the previous owner. after the tune, i made 300hp and ran a 13.7 on a slipping clutch and bald tires. so maybe this guy just had a tuning issue or a boost leak? who knows, but evos definitly do not run 15's.... even with a bad driver.

its pretty normal to bang the rev limiter alot in those cars cause as soon as the turbo spools it breaks the tires loose and if you shift to soon the motor will bog...but yea he isnt a very good driver either,his 3rd to 4th shift was pretty sad...he is really really inconsistant at the track
