how much money you got?

generally the most you can expect to get to is about 200hp at the the crank with an aftermarket ecu, port job, intake, TB mod, full exhaust, bigger injectors and better fuel pump - this is your typical beefy NA

if you want more you're going to have to go peripheral port
which is expensive and not even remotely streetable

Even if you had the capablility of achiving 350hp, the cost of getting there would exceed the cost of turbo charging.

damn dude. 350 NA whp?!?!

right now, I think the record (with a street port) is 206.
There is this big "competition to see who can get 250 whp, and still be generally accepted as streetable.
I have no doubt that you could make close to that, but it is gonna require crazy ports, and crazy fuel dumping...
In your case, you're better off boosting it...

peripheral port is the only way an NA is going to see over 300 hp
and you'll get pulled over everytime you drive on the street because
they are ear bleedingly loud
swapping in the TII drivetrain would be a much more cost effective plan
buying an actual TII would be even cheaper in the long run

what are you doing that you feel you need 350 hp?
and why had you not done research on these cars before hand?

Point being that my unmodded bone stock S5 motor has gotten the car past 140mph
and I can hang with anyone through the corners at speed.
So really you ought to just learn what the car can do before increasing the power.

edit:

after looking at the car I'd say you should either learn to enjoy it for what it is, or sell it to someone who'll appreciate a low mileage good condition S4
fix the headlights and post it on the RX7Club.com - Powered by vBulletin for sale forums
you should get $2500 to $3000 for it.
While you're there thoroughly read the information on these cars in the second gen forum, I learned a ton from the site.

^ yeah thats one way to do it, although a 5 liter na rotary motor would theoretically crank out more than 800whp...
