no its not a high school thing.....im in school for automotive i go to wyotech and theres a lot of hondas and muscle cars there so when i beat him i had a lot of guys come up to me and was like where did you get your turbo kit and when i told them its a stock turbo they looked at me with this look like i dont want to race him i cant wait to go back on the 22 of this month so i can do some more real work to my car like put it on a lift and really check it out

 

are you at the wyotech in sacramento? i am a wyotech grad from there, march 2007. i did the street rod program, how are you liking it?

 

how much boost are you running ?

 

no im at the one in long beach...and i like it, its cool the instructors are really cool despite that some of them dont know much about rotaries and then there are the ones that do but other than that its a really good program

 

umm with that setup and no boost controller im running 12psi....its descent but i need to tune it....so far i have some things comming really soon i decided on what computer im going to go with so that i can tune it so im excited about that

 

how much power do you think your making with a streetport and 12psi?

 

i want to say about 250 260 mabe more or mabe less...i know its pretty fast but i cant say cause its not tuned how ever the motor was built to make a little over 400 horse power so im going to have it tuned to that with a upgraded turbo and haltech set up...with this some what stock setup i havent had it dynoed so i cant give you a straight up answer of what it is or what the numbers are.....but i will have all that for you soon.....i will say this...before the motor was ported i was able to keep up with mildly modified subarus and evos and with the port im beating them and i can keep up with some v8 but i think thats driver skill and being confident in what you got....but thats jus me lol

 

trust me, i graduated wyotech fremont, none of my teachers have EVER seen the insides of the rotary. oh well, i got bashed on pretty hard owning a 7, specially after going through the smog program, they didnt like me too much lol

Where'd you get the 720cc injectors from?

My plans with my 7 are pretty much the route youre going it seems.

 

lol dont feel bad i always get the infamous WHY DONT YOU PUT A V8 IN IT THEN IT WILL BE A REAL CAR or my favorite instructor always says pay him to take the car lol but he knows about them i saw the race and had theis smile on his face when i got back to school then i became the master rotary tech at schol lol and one of my other instructors asked me to bring in an engine so that i can tear it down and show them how it works now thats classic

 

when i bought the car they were already on the car however there is a place out here near me that sells them its called rc engineering i can get some for you let me check the price and ill pm you

 

Sounds good...and are they plug-n-play or do you need dif clips?

 

It was a joke. When everyone sees a black person near an rx7 they act shocked. Two of the best engine builders on the east coast are black here. Kinda funny.

 

corrected

not knocking you or anything, but please, use punctuation.

550 prim and 720 sec and you are running 12 psi on stock turbo....you are brave man.

Also, what rear you have? Stock lsd?

stock shock with cut eibach springs.....DAYUM.

better shocks and new springs will definitly make it easier to control the car with throttle.

 

yes english teacher and would you like to proof read my term paper when im done as well lol........j/k thanks for the correction

 

yea when i got the car i believe the computer is set so that the car runs 12 psi i wont let it go any higher and as far as the rear its a 1.5 lsd and the suspension i dont like it at all i hate when people cut there springs.....so right now im stuck between tokikos (5way adjustable) or coilovers not sure which way i want to go...how ever im going to start updating soon i priced a haltech with upgraded trubo for a really good price so im going to shoot some pics when i get it along with the dyno numbers as well

 

yes they are plug and play so you dont have to change the clips or anything like that

 

bnr stage 3 turbo
haltek ecu (rotary edition)
coilovers or tokiko's
custom twin plate and flywheel
aluminum drive shaft
comming in feb cant wait to put it all on im so excited i think im going to have the car dyno tuned to 300 to 350

 

.

 

how many miles have you put on your rebuild? you are a brave man to be pushing 12 psi without a decent tune or wide band

Wow dude, i just saw that t2 vs gti video you burnt the **** otta that dude

how much big is a monster street port compared to a regular street port?

btw how do you know your boosting 12 psi? the rtek 1.7 dosen't really do anything except defeat the fuel cut and changes when the secondary's start dumping fuel

 

Go with coilover for sure..

 

Why is everyone so concerned w/ running 12 psi w/ 720's on the stock turbo? It doesn't move THAT much air, and there are people (puerto ricans) down here that run 10-12 psi on stock injectors. The stock timing is pretty conservative and rotaries run rich stock.

That being said, the stock top mount is maxed out, and running untuned is not ideal, especially w/ a street port...

 

well its not that im brave running 12psi there are some mods i did to the motor that allows me to do it such as im running s4 rotors in my s5 block which allows me to run a higher boost safely so 12 psi is not hurting my car and im not stuck on 12 psi but because i have a 3 inch exhaust all the way back and because of the ports the car is going to run like that even without a boost controller and the rtek computer dont jus defeat the fuel cut it does a lot more...you cant run stock injectors with that computers so it does a lot more than that as far as the street port....its a lot bigger than a regular street port its really a race port when i had my first motor built the port job on that was no where near big as the one i have now and the miles i have on my rebuild is about 5 to 6 k on it

 

im not concerned with running 12 psi but thats what the car is running at...until i tune it...once i tune it and put my stage 3 turbo on im going to tune it to 10 psi but right now thats what its running at.....even though i can run higher boost safely with the setup i have im not going to over do it.....i want it suttle and nice for street and track and then later on ill start adding more power to it
