using ltx-12, fully doweled motor ,with all new seals , 2mm apex, street ported ,turbonetics t76 (ohh yeah..) custom exhaust manifold,
for now i am planning to run with the stock injectors and fpr(all of the above hit my wallet pretty hard) i have the cosmo pump in the car from the 2rotor days (thats a real good pump and still seems to work perfect)
i am planning to run low boost for now ,later mods will be bigger inj. fuel-rail etc. , upraded pump/s ,more BOOST, i am planning to run like 20~25 psi, .....think it will hold???, and yes if the engine holds , i know the trans,diff, shafts ,wont hold , but ill get to those later , fully street car , not intended for the strip (that should be interesting right??)

The engine will probably hold at 20-25 psi if tuned correctly but honestly don't think you're going to need that much for a street car(I've heard people with single 13B's say 400rwhp was more than enough). And keep in mind those kinds of boost pressures are getting into race gas territory..

Who did you say made your exhaust manifold? Just a welding shop?

Oh and just running bosch coils with the ltx-12 or msd??

I saw in the other pics it looks like they're mounted on top of the engine/under the uim but can't tell what kind of coils they are..

i think i can get away with 20psi pump gas but just to be safe o will be using c16 for anything above 17psi and yes i am using msd coils
my old 2rotor i was runnign 20psi pump gas and 25 on c16 never did dyno the 2rotor ,but i do think the thing made around 500~550 hp it felt crazy and in some cases not really streetable , cant wait to see what the car does with this baby

i made the manifold myself , didn`t come out exactly as i planned but it seems to work ,i had it laid out nice but in the welding process it "moved" a bit ,.....so it fits nicely , but the turbine housing is a bit close to the intake (i`ll see if i can get a pic), of course it can be fixed with a heat shield,.....but it was not the way i intended it to be ,....but hey..... the t76 isnt exactly easy to fit in there anyways
