Then engine is a rebuilt streetported motor. i think basically stock internals. I got it from rx7engines.com or something like that over 4 years ago.
This is the turbo; http://www.turblown.net/store/index.php?productID=47

What is the boost curve like on the 12A? I believe you are the only one with a 12A that has this turbo running..

I'm only running 7.5-8 lbs now but its at the level of boost at just over 3000 rpms between 3000 and 3500 just like you said it should be.... i need to redesign my carb hat then i can jet it better and turn the boost up a little more... haven't messed with the timing yet... its at 10 deg locked distributor. im still running a bit lean so im kinda afraid to push it until i have it tuned better and all the kinks worked out of it.... i am thinking about going with fuel injection if a new bonnet design doesn't make this thing nicer to tune and give me better drivability. It definitely quick now though... definitely. it pulls real hard and is smooth at full throttle.. doesn't take long and your going over 100mph. Thanks

hey guys im going to great lakes dragaway on the 24th... Not sure if anyone knows of it.. its a dragstrip by union grove WI.. pretty popular.. they did an episode of pass time there. Anyways me and some buds are going to the Real Street Drags and test and tune. So i will have some numbers with what im running now... just to get a baseline. Im still running a little lean so im sticking with 7.5-8 lbs of boost. 10-12 deg advance on the timing and 8000 redline. i know thats a bit high but i will be shifting at about 7500-7700 hopefully haha hopefully i dont blow it up. anyways ill have my first ever 1/4 mile time with my 7. wish me luck
