Re: Rx and Cars...
The Wraith that you speak of.... That was a 700 HP 2.2L Chrysler/Cosworth creation. Friggin' SICK car.

but are we talking about the same thing?
The Dodge M4S is an American high performance prototype sports coupe originally engineered, designed, and built by Dodge in 1984 as a technology demonstrator vehicle. It was designed by then chief designer of Dodge, Bob Ackerman.[1]
The car was made famous by its appearance in The Wraith, a 1986 supernatural film. The mid-engined car had a tested and confirmed top speed of 194.8 miles per hour (313.5 km/h)[1] and could go from 0 to 60 miles per hour (97 km/h) in 4.1 seconds, with more than 440 horsepower (330 kW) under the hood coming from its relatively small displacement (especially by American standards) 2.2L 4 cylinder forced induction engine.[2][3]
The car has since gained an enthusiast cult following, prompted by the fame it gained from appearing in The Wraith.[4][5]

Re: Rx and Cars...
Yes.... read more into it, not just Wiki..... They state an 800 HP variation of that little engine, but I have been studying it for years, and I saw the 700HP one come up a few times. That one was too wild for the stunt driver, (given the total weight of the car and driver) so they threw the detuned 440HP one in. They also used a mild mannered Pontiac V6 for a lot of the driving scenes.
My friend has built 2 of these 2.2L engines. He showed me the dyno sheet for one : 396HP (and I rode in it) and the one he's building now - he is aiming for 500HP at the wheels. It has a Holset turbo in it from a Dodge Diesel engine. (he's sick with it already ) :)
