Just picked up some goodies from Elliot @ Turblown

My Turbo just got back from garret for balancing after getting the upgraded Billet wheel, and my new 440 series Adaptronics ECU

 

as a fellow minnesotan, and rx7 lover, what in the heck do you do for a living? I can't really do much to my car this year with buying a house. Close on the 15th! but great build bro, sub'd

 

Awesome! I work for TDS Telecom. It is a telephone company 7th largest in the US. I am a Senior Tech... I am an overtime *****, I worked 870 hours OT last year and this year im already on my way to break that ha. For me its Race car > then house, I plan to buy a house next year once the Rx7 is full race ready.

 

Nice, I am a server technician in I.T. but mainly a server hardware specialist. Big plans for my FC once it's back home from storage in my very own garage to work in! Hope to see this thing in person sometime.

 

oh I forgot I got all my suspension sandblasted going to paint it flat black! ya ya that is a bed of a single guy ha

 

what part of MN are you in? I have yet to see any Fds aside from mine

 

Brainerd lakes

 

gotcha, well sounds like youre pretty close to BIR then! lucky.... well build looks good man doing a great job!

 

yes I cant wait for this summer! Bir just repaved the road coarse its going to be so nice.

 

Hopefully i will have a tune by then, my car is in bed need of a new tune. but i dont know many people up here and waiting for steve kan to make it up here is like waiting for the yeti to come knock on my door. lol does turblown to tuning?

 

Yes Elliot from Turblown does tuning on Rx7s give him a call 602-705-9943. What kinda ECU are you running?

 

PFC currently, have been for like 7-9 years lol been looking at the new one they offer though so who knows. I will give him a call should i tell him you refered me?

 

Yea you can tell him that. If you are not crazy on wiring up your car I would go with the Adaptronics ECU that connects to your stock harness. Their customer support is top noch & the tuning technology is so much more advanced then the PFC.

 

I have wired up many haltechs in the past and built many cars just never really did much tuning lol. the PFC is rather limited and has really limited me on how much power i can make. I spoke with Elliot he is in the process of moving so cant really do much with tuning and what not, but i have some things to finish up before i will be ready for a tune anyway so it all works out. thanks for the reference to him he sounds like he really knows his stuff

 

He really does!! I would not have been able to get where I am with the car with out him... We will have to meet up this summer, I have 2 other friends with FDs and another friend of mine has a FC shooting for 8 or 9s!

 

sounds like a plan man, i would like to actually talk about some of your build, i think i am changing a few things on mine after seeing yours. you have done a great job man. you ever get to the cities?

 

Feel free to message me w/e, yes I plan to go to some of the ricekiller's events on Mondays.

 

Diff overhaul LSD wont show up till next week.

 

what kind of power is your tuner expecting to get with this setup? Looks great so far

 

200rwhp

 

What a dick! lol

 

on a more serious note potential of 500+ hp but I will be happy with 400ish at least for this summer

 

I love the fact that all the parts are spread across the entire bed. Dedication right there!

 

That's funny **** right there....
