nocab's car in Turbo Magazine

Just picked up the new turbo magazine today (October 2004) and saw nocab's car in there. This may be a repost, but I did a search and saw nothing. Just wanted to say congrats to nocab for getting his car in Turbo mag.
Also, thought it was funny how they said "The engine was topped off with a set of 2mm A'PEXi ceramic seals and shipped off to Bacon via frieght to his front doorstep." A'PEXi seals? How did that get passed the editors? They also said "Not the type to take chances, Bacon installed a GReddy two-row intercooler that replaces the inefficient factory corner-mount system" The inefficiency part is correct, but corner mount? I didn't know the stock FD IC location was considered the "corner" like the DSM or Silvia IC. They always find someway to screw up a section involving a rotary car. Oh well. This isn't a post bashing the mag, I was just pointing out a few things that caught my eye as I read the article.
Anyway, Congratulations nocab for getting your car in Turbo, I definitely think you deserve it. Good luck!
-Kevin

Congrats NoCab! Will have to pick up the issue(like any other mag with rotaries) when it hits my newsstand/grocery store.

It is a repost, but Kyle deserves all the props again.
