man that thing is going to be an awsom drift car if thats what you want to do with it. I dont know what the power band would be like with a pport but you are going to have great throtle response . mine is going to be a 4 port large street port na with s5 turbo intake manifold running on a haltech sprint re. I am going to depower my rack to. I belive it is a 15.2:1 ratio rack so it will be very responsive. I am still not sure how you get the piston off though?

Hey bud. Don't mean to **** on your parade but you wont get a cert for 225's on 17x9's

Minimum is 235/40 (8 - 9.5) or 235/45 (7 - 9) on a 17x9 wheel so keep that in mind

Otherwise keep up the good work. You're nearly there

yes p/o couldnt get it working so he sent it to haltech, haltech checked it (bench test) sent it back saying you must have hooked it up rong sure enuf he did.
this haltech cost me 512nzd posted it has done 1500ks on a rx7. then that rx7 crashed and was parted out this got bought with the idea of puting it into a different car but sat in dry storage till now i got a great deal.
