so far so good just twice as expensive

 

lol agreed for some reason i stuck with the FC maybe cause im more knowledgeable but either way im happy

Nice build.
FYI Prosport gauges suck.

 

ive actually had no complaints from them i think there great gauges for the price.. i cannot see myself spending 2 to 300 for a single gauge

well ordered my FMIC about a week ago from rx7 store and got shipped an FD front mount accidently =/ so had to re send back to jason and awaiting my fc intercooler to come in

I have a prosport pyro, installed last june and has maybe seen 1500 miles worth of use and it has already failed. IMHO I'd suggest autometer for a little bit more money.

 

What temperature was your EGT probe rated to? What was the highest reading on the gauge?

 

I'm not sure what the probe was rated for, however the probe was provided with the gauge and the gauge reads up to 2600F.

 

Whats up with that primary fuel rail? I see you just can't stay away from the Rx-7s... Hopefully things will work out this time around..

 

primary fuel rail was included with the "kit" i bought off a local forum member but forgot that i need that FPR so i ordered one.. dont have to worry about FPD or rubber lines breaking all braided lines...

but no i couldnt stay away i sold my 2000 f250 and had some money laying around realizing i had no project or toy anymore so i went on a hunt in search for one and found one about a week later lol and after some saving up and selling parts off my f250 i had no use for this is where she stands lol

and yes hopefully things do come around this time ive done everything correctly this time i havent cheaped out anywhere everything has been replaced so hopefully we shall see... she gets sent off to paint in a few weeks if the warm weather stays around if not ill have to wait till summer...
