Well I am glad you are going down my route.... I have a 20b in London and I tell you its not a wise decision to go 20b unless you have 60 tousand dollars sitting in your account... the real problem comes after you get the car back from the builder....do you know the minute you put your foot down your diff will go....then you cant put KAZZ1.5 or something on as they will go as welll....So you will become like me I search here for JUSTIN SAMBERG so that I can request him to make me a Cobra Diff Cradle.....after the diff is sorted the propshaft is gona go and then your gear box....I know it all depends on the torque and BHP you are going to be putting out from your car.....In my case I am pushing arround 800BHP single turbo....street ported engine but still I was not expecting this much of the problem.... I have already spent 60thousand dollars and still the car is not finished.....Really need help with the strong diff as I want to hit the 1000BHP (because you only live ones) and without a good diff or a gear box I know I can do that....anyone who knows the person who can do the Cobra diff for me... I would appreciate his/her help
Regards

David my car is as low as yours and as long as the flatbed driver brings along one 2 x 4, getting it up there should not be a probem'
Trust me my tow truck driver knows me quite well
Ive overheated twice last year, and both times i stop the car where it is at and call it in.
Not smart in Miami, but the Sig Sauer is resting in the glove box.

As a big aside, the Autotrain has a minimum clearance requirement of 4 inches. Do you think we'll have an issue?

that's great news.
---Just a thought, so this could be a horrible idea---is there an ECU or another way to have the engine turn off or severe derate at a certain water or oil temp? I know that most of us watch the temp gauges and know to pull over if things get out of hand. I was trying to think of either - other people driving the car or racing when your watching...but watching 10 things at once and might not notice a rapid rise in temps.

Oh another thing, they have to drive the car onto the train, not you.. Just hope its not the same guy from the body shop.

i think we will be fine. I have read that the autotrain has transported Ferraris and Bentley without a problem. 4" is the height of a parking curb, just dont drive too fast.....My freinds with VWs that were slammed transported without any problem for the H20 fest in Ocean City MD last year.

I think you will be more impressed now as I had them take out some of the richness under throttle and it drives much better now and has more power. I could feel the the loss of power at DGRR. Jesus is so conservative it's still under 11.0 AFR but at least it's not 9.9 like it was.Fortunately the car is now at Kilo so they know what they are doing. In reality, the body shop guys wanted to please me and they thought they were doing something good. Not good though.

Okay. I started with Wolf, then went to Haltech, and now Microtech which is working very well for me so why go to Motech? It's a great system but always go with what your tuner uses and it is Microtech.

That would be realllllyyyyy cool of you do to so. We could learn a lot from your experiences and whatnot. Say, were you ever caught up in the Chris Green saga? There are stories on the forum of members having to get their parts & cars from the shop via property owner.

Chris is a great guy who fell on tough times and I hope he is personally doing well although he totally screwed me and many other RX7 owners. At least my car wasn't impounded like others were.

Yes I was and got my car out of there before everything went down. That was a few years ago and many many posts ago. Chris claimed Wolf was going to use my car as their US "demo" car and convinced me to send the car to CA for a single turbo upgrade and Wolf tuning. Had other forum members stake out his shop and luckily a transporter was in the area when he showed up at his shop.

Your trials, tribulations & success story will be a good read. Have you started already?
