I can't BEGIN to count how many people have commented on how quick my car is... when I tell them I just kicked their *** on my "low boost" setting they just ... I can usually see gears ACTUALLY grinding in their head when I tell them the engine's only 70 cubic inchs... lol

And I have ZERO delusions of grandeur... I know my car IS NOT as fast as a brand new $30,000 Subaru STi with 350+ hp... I'm OK with that... The fact I can keep up with a supercar such as a tuned STi in my little $400 RX7 (original purchase price) is SIMPLY AWESOME.... ... Now, let me put some fresh rubber on my car, DITCH MY STOCK SWAY BARS and RUBBER BUSHINGS and bump my boost up to my high setting and I'm ready for ROUND TWO!!! ARRGGHHH!!! lol

BRAP BRAP BRRRAAAAAAAPPPPPP !!!!!!!
Get my information from multiple people. I may be wrong, and I will admit it.

Friend of mine with an 82 Rustang blew his motor on just 6lbs, no intercooler.
After being told from him and numerous others (abet mustang owners) that
running higher PSI with no intercooler will just heat your intake up.

Fuel only with no intercooler will only get you so far. Maybe I didn't apply it to rotaries?
