To each his own I guess, if you want to go through the hassle of reconfiguring a fwd engine and tranny to fit into a rwd car, more power to ya |

google 13btt. I owned a Mazdaspeed 3, but thats not the motor im talking about, The Speed3 has a 2.3 MZR DISI The 3rd gen RX7 is the home of the 13btt A 1.3L Rotary, and is a rear wheel configuration....i may be a little overzealous about this project, but im not an idiot.
also my speed 3 was pushing 320whp and 350ft/lbs @18psi(Smoked my buddy's S52 swap all day).....i would totally put that in a Ti if it werent transverse
