AHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!

That's not bad at all, but the best carburated set-up I have seen at the track is Falito's '88 RX7 running 7.66 with weber with a 13b street ported engine, 18 lbs of boost, but he does get some juice, i think a 2 stage nos system. The one thing that I like about his car is that it idles stock and u can't even hear the car at the light.

Please post where I can see that car. I don't think anybody is running 7's on a 13B - yet.

I Falito more. Reason is that he is able to run mid sevens with weber and Abel has all kinds computerised system, not mechanical like falito. I think that it's a lot harder to tune a car like Falito's and make it run mid 7's then a car with haltech or fuel injected system. I have heard rummors that Falito is thinking about going haltech, i think that if he goes haltech he'll be running low 7's. What do you guys think?

So what?

When you get below 7.49 you are REQUIRED to have a certified full chassis (BIG bucks... $50-100k just for the chassis) anyway. Why bother spending all the effort putting STEEL body panels back on?

Mine looks exactly like that, no spoiler

well.. okay so the rims are different, and the shifter doesn't come up through the instrument panel :P I was only talking exterior.

I want to build her up to do at least 12s without heavy mods.

I'll post pics of mine when the snow finally melts

Edit: I was a n00b back in '03 when I posted this, don't listen to me. 12 seconds is definitely not achievable without "heavy mods". Lol...
