here is what I have to put on:
Racing beat cat back exhaust (still on back order)
Bonez intake
Apexi Super-AFC
Walbro fuel pump
Autometer boost and A/F gauges in pillar mount
HKS blow off valve
Mazdatrix short throw shifter
Fuel-cut defencer ( still on back order )
Possible 720 secdaries

I am in the Navy and only come to visit my family that lives in Chambersburg, I come home almost every weekend since I am stationed in Norfolk, VA. I would love to meet you guys all the people around Chambersburg are either into Mustangs or hondas and I want something that can smoke the best of them. Right now I am on my deployment but we are on the way home (can't tell you any dates sorry).

Any of you guys ride four wheelers? I have a 2001 Yamaha Raptor (second gear is blown out right now thanks to my little bro). All my friends ride dirt bikes and stuff up in the mountains and I go with them when I am home.

Hope to hear more from you guys if you want my home number throw me an e-mail and we can swap. I will turn my cell phone back on once I get back then I can call anywhere for free.

I live right outside Pittsburgh, but the thought of putting on another set of underdrive pullies is enough to scare me away. The pullies and the injectors will take as long as all the rest of the stuff put together. Good luck! Most of that stuff could be done by the avarage at home mechanic, and does not have to be experienced with the rotary.

The hard part is getting the damn bolt off. And not letting the e-shaft move while you're changing the pully. You will just need a belt that is about a half inch smaller for the alternator; rx-7s have a preaty good amount of adjustability on the alternator mount.
