He started by replacing the factory 1.8 L K8-DE V6 with a 2.5 L V6. Then he moved the 2.5 L V6 to the back of the car. Next he installed another engine in front. The current setup is two turbocharged 2.5 L KL-ZE V6 engines mated to five-speed manual transmissions. Each engine features an eBay 6250 turbocharger, 850 cc RX-7 FD injectors, MegaSquirt PNP2 ECU, and run on E85 fuel. The front differential is limited-slip while the rear differential is welded. The car&#8217;s best quarter-mile is a 11.3 sec. Listen as Ty explains how he built the car and then watch him make smoke at Hoonigans.
