Ported intake, Megasquirt ECU (diy!), limited slip rear-end (don't see it on your list anywhere), you have pineapple sleeves yet?

um intake is comming as soon as I get some more sanding/grind stones for my dremmel.

What the heck is a megasquirt????

I might be able to get an LSD read end for free in about two montns from a friend.

the sleeves will come soon aswell but I am waiting on that since I have to remove my intake for that and I want a new gasket since I used RTV on it last time(worked fine no problems)


Dang sonicrat you are the only person that cares


EDIT: wait what would I need to relocate the battery??? I wanted to do this but I am not shure how or how much????

You post *****! Anyway, yeah, I seem to be jonny on the spot in this thread. Summit has a relocation kit, the part number, or how to get to it, I do not recall, I just ran accross a thread which was talking about them, basically it allows you to run it inside the car and hide it in the storage bin, or whever you feel. As for the Megasquirt, it's basically a build it yourself standalone minus ignition support (thus why us rx7 people piggyback the stock ECU so it handles ignition until their ingition controller is released) Check out the megasquirt group on http://groups.yahoo.com

Well, considering how stupid I sounded by explaining what relocating the battery does, I think I'll warn you that I haven't slept in the past 3 days. Anyway, I believe they offer all the wiring and battery terminals, and a battery box along with a inline fuse, I don't quite remember all the specifics, now I'm going to go dig for it because I can't stop trying to remember! I hate that!

heat wrap on your true dual pipes coming off the engine. You could do it on your intake manifold also, especially down low where it is near the hot exhaust pipes. You could even build an aluminum box to surround the header and feed it with air with a hose from the bumper inlet. That is what I am planning for my car.

Have you smoothed out that sharp edge in the plastic intake elbow yet? And have you match ported the adapter plate going from your cone filter to the maf sensor? I noticed a crisp gain in throttle response when I did that.

Here's my somewhat educated opinion:
-Balance & Blueprint injectors (prolly around $100 or so)
-e-fan (maybe not worth it)
-GROUNDS!!! even if you've already done it, do some more.
