Turbo magazine - Rotary Tech article!

Anyone seen the recent issue with the almost 400hp black WRX on the front cover???

The Rotary Tech article (series) shows a couple of blown up front irons from Adam Saruwatari and Abel Ibarra with the oil supply bosses all crumbled.  The iron in the foreground is supposedly Adam S.'s, and it had a serious slip of the die grinder skipping obvious in the pic!

Wow!

I also notice the Adam S. porting pushes the intake port closer to the oil control o-rings path and virtually no increase in overlap.

Everyone too lazy to go down to the local book store and smooch off the rack?

I've got the issue, but I don't have a scanner handy.

Damnit RETed, now I have to go out and find that freaking magazine and then wonder what you are getting at.
I don't understand the significance of the die grinder trauma.

I thought Saruwatari was no longer rotary powered and driving Acura. What's the story there? And where does RETed find these babes for his avatar? Somebody help me with these noob questions!
