Isn't much of that either. The engine harness was pulled back through the firewall. There wasn't really anything left. The door sills and trunk need paint but other than that... It was done right. EVERYTHING is new. Engine, Transmission, Rear-end... just need to have the exterior body work done. Maybe this spring...

Don't due those cheap turbo gasket, get the metal ones.

Also numbers are way low for 16 psi, you should had being around 450 without issues and very conservative tune

The manifold gasket error was a brain fart on my behalf. Metal gasket is in there now. Still about 80-90 whp lower than I expected. Steve is open about his dyno being short on numbers, but not this short. The engine is running great so I don't think it's engine internal. Not sure what else it could be. Maybe the intercooler (rx7store.com Vmount) is killing it.

Is this the same car that came from Rotary Performance? Steve told me it made another 25 or so at the wheels over that dyno and a PFC.. Not sure if you are the same person.

Did the engine make a lot of torque, just not peak HP? Post the dyno sheet...
