Oil line won't effect performance much but is not good for your motor. Sounds like you need a big turbo. I kill cars in my SA and it's only N/A. PP though.I ate my mates FC off the line, was good fun.

Don't leave that OMP line too long!

Truly an excellent point...

To the poster; what kind of Rx7 do you own? Is it perhaps automatic?

A leaky OMP line won't do anything to hurt your performance...

EDIT: Well, Nevermind. I suppose running your engine without the proper lubrication will eventually cause a catostrophic failure... You should probably get that fixed.

It would take an N/A, but it's still slow. The 2ZZ belongs in light sporty cars, not Corollas.

Shifting at 6k is also not really at the pinnacle of the rotary's performance. Wind her up to redline ... well, uhh, do that AFTER you get it fixed... until then don't race.

Even shifting at 6k should beat the **** out of a Corolla...

The newer XRS's sometimes feel like they can hang.
