New rotary head

What’s up everyone. New to the site and still fairly new to rotaries. Bought my first rotary few years ago from a doctor down the street from my house. It had 50k miles or so. Fairly stock. Just a PFS intercooler, Greddy intakes, and a Racing Beat dual tip cat back. He had owned the car for 12+ years. He had moved on to a Porsche Cayman S. Showed up to his house with a handful of cash and drove the car home. Had the car about a year and a half before I got an offer I couldn’t refuse from someone who wanted to buy it. Sold it and bought another FD from my same neighborhood two days later.

This one I’ve decided to work more on performance. Currently installed a Bridgeport motor, Garrett T04Z, ID1000/2000 inj, Megan cat delete, Apexi N1, aeromotive fpr, Walbro 255, Sakebomb ign-1a, Greddy pulleys, HKS intake filter, Apexi PFC, and a B&M short shifter with Exedy clutch.
Currently having a bitch of a time trying to get this car to run right. Hopefully the forum gurus can help me out.
Thanks in advance

Welcome!! Would live to see pics of the new FD!! Kinda cool how you just went to the guy's house with cash and told him you wanted to buy his car. Is the new FD better than the first one that you bought? Any pictures to share?

The new FD only has 6,XXX miles on it. But is a rebuilt title because of a front end collision. I like this one because since it’s a rebuild, I can do anything I want to it and not care. Such as rolling the fenders and even drifting it if I wanted to. Lol.
The old one was too nice to drive spiritedly. I was afraid I’d wreck it.
I had just learned that the new owner of my old FD is going to sell it soon to recoup funds to buy a house.

I like the gold wheels with red combo. I agree not having to worry about maintaining value is actually a perk sometimes. I'm kind of stuck at that crossroad right now with mine.
