No need to tell him to shut up or call him a boner. What needs to be done is to educate him.
Threads like this with . as the intro are usually not well received. While your question is valid in a way, the way it was delivered was not.
The amount of hp you will need is different for every person. I suggest you start out with very low power. Too much power is not a good thing. it all depends on your past driving experience. Also 800 HP in an RX7 is one of the highest I have ever seen. You sure he's got that much? Prolly a lot lower. Would be hardly drivable on the street.

Rx-7s are good cars for drifting. The amount of power you consider too much depends on the driver. I dont know if its too much, but i know its not nessisary.
PS i love your signiture... *sarcasm*

Well then your friends car is way too powerful to be starting out on. Get that boost down and then start out at low power. If not, he is not going to have an easy time of it learning and when he moves to a less powerful car, he will have to re-learn the basics. I suggest him getting another car. Odds are if he has that kind of power then he has the looks to go with. how bout posting a pic. I would get an FC or 240 and start out that way. With basic suspension mods. Anyone here will tell you, it's the best way to learn.

I would love 800 hp but I could never use it in a drift car. Imamura, and Asamoto have around 500 to the ground. For there skill level and there car set ups this seems to be the magic number for a FD. Fcs require a bit less. In realistic tearms my FD put out 320 with boost only mods and I run 19" tires. Not enough power for a solid clean drift. My car would be better with around 400hp. I personaly think it would be a waist to detune such a nice car for drifting. Maybe look at another car for this. That car might be worth the price of two. A drift car and a daily driver. My 0.00000002 worth
