I agree about the fuel. But really what do you think will it blow up just by idleing or revving in neutral?
You sound like a spoiled 16 year old that just got a $33,000 car for his first car. I don't think that overboosting would be an issue a stock rotary motor can handle 14lbs easy WITH FUEL MANAGMENT!!! Do you realize what your a/f ratio is like with a wide open intake and exhaust and no fuel system upgrades. Not to mention the fact that there is no telling what you would suck into your turbos. And what is the point in taking a perfectly good car and modding it to the point where it can't be driven??? AT ALL?!?!? I wonder what a 13b sounds like when you are running a 5:1 a/f ratio? I bet it sounds like oil squirting all over the road. Go do a couple 1320 runs and post the results, but when you are through i want whats still intact and usable from the car.

Thank you for the relevant information. That is about what I was guessing.

Actually buddy I am a 24 year old that busted his *** for 8 years for his $15,000 car. Thank you for repeating what I already said I was aware of and others have mentioned. As I stated I am not planning to drive the car but thanks for the suggestion. I have my reasons for experimenting. The car is not experiencing any problems it sounds healthy. You cannot have any parts. This was an absolute waste of your 2nd post here. Go buy your own 3rd gen and blow it up.

Must sound like certified *** ****. I am glad I don't live in your neighborhood. Its cool to experiment and all, but the FD is not the car to mod ghetto style. I wish you luck and hopefully you won't blow it up.

Just curious, was there a concensous saying that as long as boost was kept at the stock 10-8-10 then the '3 mod' rule or in his case the removing of the restrictions shouldn't matter?

Thanks,
Edgardo
