Question Lots of questions

- I took my car to an auto shop and they said that the engine had no compression so my first question is: Does that mean the engine needs a rebuild or is there an easy fix?
- Can you premix while the OMP is still working? Or will carbon build up be horrid?
- If I am needing to tear the engine down what can I do on my own to increase performance without breaking the bank account? Can I polish without porting? HOw much and how easy would it be to take a turbo off a Tii and install it on my 89 S4?
- Last question, I've been reading about this 2005 mustang with a "drag package" it only added 20HP, but took over 2 seconds off it's 1/4 time because they messed with the computer and cam. Are there any companies that make a "drag package" or anything like that for our RX7s'?

Thank you in advance for any input.

sigh.

seriously do you HAVE to ask about the rebuild when there is no compression?? kinda like: "hey, my friends tell me my water ballon is empty. Should I refill it?"

you CAN premix with the OMP working but you'll just foul your plugs so DON'T.


Stop using the gran turismo/forza terminology. You CAN port but polish??
Best bang for your buck= porting. Search for it.

you need manifolds, oil lines, coolant lines, and then fab it all to work. SEARCH FOR THAT INFO.


I want to beat you with a dead fish until you bleed from the fingernails!!! DRAG PACKAGE???

your in for a rough ride.

you should have stuck with domestics kid.

Wait, you are still driving it with no compression? Or what's the deal? Did you just buy it? Everything else though, man, search!

Important people take note:
I just joined the 240sx forums because my DD is acting goofy and noticed that their "Search" button was extra huge and flashed red. I think this may be something to add to the new upgrades since the forums are going to Internet Brands. Slip them like 5 bucks or something to make it flash red.
