David I have being keeping up with your thread lately, and I'm very interested on that thermal coating, I'm going to see if I can find anyone local that can do it, as I really want all the piping, intercooler and Compresor housing to be black.

nice work. it doesn't appear you have room for a proper size air filter. are you planning on running some 4 inch tubing to somewhere outside the eng compartment?

I need to buy a TIG so bad! I've been working with a 240 Hobart for several years and it's been fine for my jeep. I'm SOL on aluminum rx7 parts., what machine are you using out of curiosity?
Awesome fab work needless to say. This is coming together nicely!

Thanks for the comments guys, but I got to say that I didn't do the welding, I did all the cutting and muck up but a Local welder did all the welding.
Welding all done. Just need to get black spark plug wires. And either polish or coat the intercooler and piping.

This is very similar to my own build! But you are a few months ahead of me! Thanks for the video of start-up, its very hard to find any "street car" with this pro-jay manifold! Id really like to hear it with a little bit of a rev when it's ready! And/or dyno videos.

Intercooler looks great, definitely adds to the engine bay. Keep it polished for a good contrast.
Maybe I missed it, but what dimensions are the core? What radiator did you end up using?
Love the Typhoon intake, what is your impression with it so far?
Car sounds great, can't wait to see the dyno and track(or street) videos!

Thanks everyone, looking to finish up a few bugs and get few hundred miles on her before Tunning.
Thanks, bro. Core is 22X11X5
Aaron, don't know yet what foam will be using. But I bought the 5.5" turbo guard screen filter,

Wow what a beautiful build!
Good to see such attention to detail.
I am relocating to Florida soon and have Intentions of getting another FD once settled so it is good to see there are a few about.

So finally moving forward again, after few issues that I had running the Adaptronic ecu I finally decided to move to Haltech PS1000 and problems gone, nice to not to have to worry about those issues anymore.
In the past few weeks I installed the Haltech, also dual EGT, FP pressure sensor to log thru the haltech Logging software, also wired in the Racepak Dash.
Waiting on a oil pressure sensor to come in and once I have it wired to the Haltech Tunning will be schedule.
