Screamin Mazda 13b Rotary 28 psi Boost
8.95 at 159 mph in 1/4 mile. This thing sounds unique.
From the factory the Holden Gemini was barley considered a compact car in Australia, with a wheelbase that is not even 95 inches. The Gemini never came with any real performance options, but this owner has addressed that with a nasty Mazda 13b rotary engine. The 13b only has a displacement of about 1308cc’s but it uses every single one of them.
This 1978 Holden Gemini’s 13b engine was built by Holmes Performance has been semi-peripheral ported with SCR Apex seals. A Projay Hurricane inlet manifold takes all the 28psi of boost from the 76mm Bullseye turbo to help put down over 690 horepower to those tiny 8.5-inch tires. MicroTech LT10C dash logger AMS1000 boost controller takes the commands from Holmes Performance, who tune the tiny terror. In this video from FullBoost you can see just how wild of a ride this pocket rocket is as the Holden literally dances down the track to a best pass of 8.95 at 159 mph.
