Hi everybody!
I am currently waiting on my bank to mail the me the check to buy my first Mazda, Rotary, and RX7! It's a silver 1993 FD that has about 70k miles on it. The previous (current till I get the check to him) owner bought it and had the engine go on him a few years ago. Since then, he's been slowly putting in a new engine and prepping the car for a single turbo kit. From what he says, the only thing left is to get the kit and intercooler, install them, and have the whole thing tuned.
What I'm trying to figure out now, is which kits are best (and where do you find the best prices!) and if there are any good tuners in SLC, UT.
What I would like to see in the end is a car that is fun to drive, has a good amount of get up and go, will still be comfortable to drive to work and such, and that might get to see some track time eventually.
What I have been looking at so far is a GT35R kit, but I'm totally clueless on the intercooler issue. FMIC vs SMIC vs TMIC... I don't know the benefits and downfalls of each.
Any help on these issues would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks all!
Chris
