What are you going to do when the motor eventually blows up?

Steve can tune it, don't get me wrong but........ The motor will only last so long with that HP. It WILL blow up.

What happens when it breaks and takes out the housing and you need to port match that bridge? That's going to get real costly.

If you've got that kind of chedder to be replacing motors left and right, more power to you

Eric, do you run open DP all of the time? Or switch between exhaust and no exhaust?

Update, I got my exhaust put on last week. The two mufflers really did help quiet it down a lot, but it is still pretty loud. I will put up video this weekend. Last weekend I entered my car into the Nopi car show both saturday and sunday. I was still missing a few interior pieces but oh well. I met a few RX7 guys from KC and Iowa. I still have one minor coolant leak that I still need to locate. Also, my LIM is sucking in air from around my secondary fuel injectors. My dad and I will be fixing these things this weekend. Here are some pics of my 7 at Nopi.

Here are some pictures of her all done. Everything is fixed and/or completed except for my Innovative wideband gauge above the steering wheel. It is getting tuned in 2 days by Steve Kan, I can't wait. Tell me what you guys think about the pics.
