Vid of my new halfbridge

So finally after a year and a month after the accident and dealing with the god damn insurance company, my new halfbridge T78 is alive and home. Its extremely untuned and steve kan is tuning it this weekend. Stay posted for dyno results!!
There are 2 vids of it warming up and after warm. Since its untuned it stinks of fuel badly. Thanks to the Rx7 store(Jason and Zavior) for the engine. The car builds about 10psi at 3k RPM!!!!!!!

Warmup:

Warm Idle:

I've been very interested in a 1/2 bridge but I was told by my builder that a large street port is better. I thought the 1/2 bridge only affected the top end but he says it screws up the idle and I forget but sounded like the opposite of what I thought. I tried to ask Judge Ito but I don't think he's around any more. Does you 1/2 bridge go all teh way down? any pics of it? what are your results and how do you like it? errr, how many hows does the optimize take?

I think street fire is down for vids or something. It does idle at 1500rpm and it sounds like its cam'ed out. The half bridge(according to steve kan) helps low and mid range, and top end is like a large race port. My turbo does spool MUCH faster with the 1/2 bridge port, i get around 10psi at 3000rpm with a T78 and a greddy 3 row. I think it sounds cool, but i would not do it for a daily driver.

I have 18x9.5 and 18x10.5 on both my FD's they fit great but you have to roll your front fenders.

The bridge sounds great. How much you looking to make at the wheels?

Not bad, I expected alot more brappyness though. Dang, idles a wee bit high. How does the high idle affect temps in traffic (bumper/bumper, stop/go)?
