That would be because california is like the **** hole when it come to all the liberals that are pro environment which is the same ******* reason that we can't drill up some of the oil that the U.S. has because it would hurt the ******* animals so we gotta pay 500 dollars a month to run our rx7's!!!

just blowing of some steam... please move out of california...

I'll remember that next time I'm out surfing after work. Or better yet at lunch! Nothing beats paddling out in the middle of your work day. Nothing not even a nooner

I race several different types of motorcycles at Willowsprings and I wanted a similar type of "hang on to the bars" acceleration feel. This is main motivation for a high HP FD. Thanks again guys for your replies. Keep it coming

Get the car first. I know I'm a dick, but saying "I'm getting a FD and I want XXHP" is just plain retarded. 80% of the people on this forum can't even get a stock sequential twin turbo FD to ******* run properly much less get a single turbo to pass smog...

If you REALLY want to learn, go to the single turbo forum. Talk to ErnieT, FD3BOOST, Jason, Goodfella, etc... IE: the guys that know what they're talking about.

There are so many goddamn ignorant people here lately just spouting off about something they know nothing of - it's frightening.

Which is why ErnieTs claim isn't really true..... Sorry but that 752 "reliable" RWHP is more like 350. Unless he is daily driving it and it is seeing 3Xpsi all year round, which I don't think he is. Because in that case it would NOT be "reliable". Sorry
