Damn... tube car or no? Probably a silly question, actually. Pretty impressive either way.

ehh no thats Sporty Dynojet/Racing
Alex n Gaby and some others
7.34@180

Now the fastest 2 rotor in the world
still plenty left

Gaby is the one who tuned my car couple months back

car still uses the factory FD intake manifold
theres a piston vs rotor event coming up real soon
plans are to run 7.2's
same boost levels as in there 7.5 and then 7.4 pass
just tuning the clutch and suspension

He'll be making another trip to FL and some others places to do tuning
I'm going to have him tune my car for 28 PSI this time around

I'd like to look up in that manifold. Is it still running the stock lim? If not whats he running for a lim? What about the throttle body?

Hey Kabooski,
I noticed your from Orlando, FL I lived there for 4years and is where I learned to build rotarys. Gaby also tuned my friends car in Orlando don't know if you know him his name is Wilfredo Colon they call him Freddy Turbo. Tony from The Racing Store in Tampa, but he lives in Orlando, got my LTX12S from Gaby in P.R. when he went there for the PanAmerican Nationals. Yeah I wish I was back there in Orlando so I could get tuning done by him but I'm stuck here in San Diego, CA where no one tunes Microtech. Look out for my friend Freddy out at the track he has a green Datsun 1200 3/4 chassis and has it tuned close to 700hp to the wheels.

Thanks

My car should be ready in about two weeks, but I'm afraid of driving it to WPB for the NHRA event on the base map.

Please PM me when you have a set date, so I can start making arrangements to get the car to Orlando.
