They had the car at sevenstock. They had just got it running and didn't get to clean the car up yet but still very, impressive. I talked to those guys for about an hour, nice guys and they love their work. Top notch job and probably the best version of three rotor installs out there, not to mention the 4 rotor...

There is a PP 26B series 6 over here. Running low 10's after a couple of runs at the 1/4.

And a guy in the car club putting a 26B into a T-bucket Here is a pic of the cranks he made up - engine just about sorted now.

That second rotor looks like its a higher compression rotor than the other 3.

Hopefully Louis meant the original comment as a joke. It would suck to have someone delete a thread that the rest of us think is cool just because a newbie might ask a dumb question. We wouldn't have a forum anymore if that were the case.

They had just got it running and had not dynoed it yet. If I remember correctly, they were shooting for about 700 rwhp, but I can't be sure of that.

The rotors were used just to give the photo some scale... using second gen N/A rotors.

How are they using n/a 2nd gen rotors if the engine is based off of a 12A?

Edit: Oops wrong picture. I thought you referring to the first link.

Who is autotech and what is their history? From my perspective as an East coast resident they came out of nowhere about a year ago with two amazing projects: 20b and 26b. If I remember correctly their site indicates that they made room for both motors by sliding the drivetrain back, but did not cut the firewall. I was under the impression that this is not possible.

That was f*cking insane! Jesus, if my car sounded like that, I could do with "just" 400rwhp :-) That thing sounds like it's winding out to 15K rpm.
