What can be expected out of a basic build rb25-240???

Mods like:-turbo-manfiold-injectors-computer-dp,exhaust-FMICetc???

Im trying to get my ducks in a row. I currently have a b16 with a 650hp turbo and Im looking for more. Thats why im considering selling it and investing in a RB swap....

prepare for being broke first, these motors suck you dry.... Anything is possible, 9 second to 13 second. Take your pick....

Investment and RB dont go together, just like RB and cheap hp. Keep your silly fwd honda or choose a different engine to put in the 240.

Im not really concerned about money. I have already research prices on most of the parts listed.

turbo,injector,ecu etc all seems like the basics need to make a fast car. Thats all that I ment. But everyones meaning for basics is diffrent I guess just like fast.

Any one have any time slips??? I saw that someone on here ran a 13.2??? Then I saw a vid on youtube of someone running a 11.

^ your sig gives me my answer. Thanx With what I will be investing in my RB I should see 11-10 easy.

Besides the power, make sure your tires and suspension is set up to think about low 1/4 times like that.

And most of all make sure the "CHECK DRIVER LIGHT" isn't blinking or lit.

realistically would 400whp be faster on a honda or a 240??? Based on the hp/weight ratio??

in the 1/4 mile? Nissan would be because we have torque. "horsepower sells cars, torque wins races."

hp to weight only works when you have traction, if you could get the honda to hook it would have the advantage
