Yes, Dave said it was as big of a steet port that he could do without affecting the lowend response too much.

And believe it or not, the car rides smoother and nicer than it ever has. Now, I just have to get somebody to align it. Nobody wants to touch my car with the wheels on it.

Thanks guys. I bought the carbon fiber on a group buy here on the forum awhile back. Its the real stuff not the fake ****. That may be why it looks good. I belive the place is called Audio Illusions in New York.

Ernie, do you think you could come up with more info on where you got your dash kit? I did a search, but all I could fined was a Audio Illusions stereo store in Curacao in the Netherland Antilles!

I'm so ******' jealous. Your RX-7 is definitely one of the best RX-7's out there. Now it's time to destroy some of your friends that own those single turbo Supras.

Now if you just had those side skirts...Just kidding ernie! You have to bust someone's ***** about something when they have a car that nice looking. That is one basass ride. I thought it was nice when i saw it at the park and even nicer when i saw it at kd last month, but now...i would like to watch you at the strip!

Audio Illusions. It's in New Rochelle, NY. The number is 914-636-0555. I set the group buy up for them a while back. Not really a group buy...just talk to Frank Cardillo and mention you're on the RX-7 Forum/list. I believe the price was $300 for the set? Been a while...I never got around to purchasing the kit myself. Strange...Just more concerned with the speed thing at the time I guess :-) As for "Ernie" content, hey, the car looks AMAZING! Dyno graphs and driving impressions soon! I'm assuming you have to break everything in first?

Thanks. Michelle the car feels 100% stronger just using the Haltech instead of the Power FC. I can't wait to dyno and run again on the track. Shouldn't be hard to hit 10's now.
Chris, no problem bro.........nuttin but luv.....

Ducky, On a side note. I would not recommend the Power Fc. Its a real POS! Worst thing I've ever had on my FD w/ the exception of the PFS PMC. Nothing is worse than that, but the Power FC was responsible for blowing 2 of my engines. Go w/ the Haltech or AEM.
