In a bold move, Tj Hunt admits to a misstep with the lackluster RX7 project, despite the flashy Veilside kit and other enhancements. Determined to inject some excitement into the car, he sets his sights on swapping out the underwhelming 13B engine for a powerhouse 20b, a three-rotor beast capable of churning out over 1,000 horsepower. Teaming up with the seasoned rotary experts, the Vargas Brothers, Tj embarks on a high-stakes mission to complete the 20b build in a mere 5 days, a challenge that would make even the most seasoned gearhead break a sweat.

Facing a series of hurdles along the way, from discovering remnants of the car's past white paint job in the engine bay to the meticulous task of prepping and painting, the team pushes forward with unwavering determination. As the engine bay gets a much-needed facelift and vibrant parts are meticulously organized, the countdown to SEMA looms large, adding an extra layer of pressure to the already intense build. With Ian tackling the intricate wiring harness for the 20b, the team races against the clock, knowing that failure is simply not an option in this high-octane endeavor.

With the modified subframe for the 20b in place, the team shifts focus to the turbo setup, aiming for a sleek and powerful design that will set the car apart. Embracing a clean and understated aesthetic with a touch of silver rotor accents, Tj's vision for the project begins to take shape. As the cabinet housing an array of essential parts is meticulously organized, efficiency becomes the name of the game, ensuring that every component is within reach as the team hurtles towards the finish line. With SEMA looming on the horizon and the promise of a significant power boost with the 20b engine, Tj and his crew are poised to deliver a jaw-dropping transformation that will leave enthusiasts on the edge of their seats.
