Thumbs up 1st Gen RX7

I saw their 1st Gen RX7 when they were here for the NHRA 2006 Finals in California. When they changed motors before the final. The motor looked very simple a 13B Cosmo RE J-Bridge + Semi P-Port. All I know is that I was standing from the side of the engine, and the porting was LARGE. The intake manifold had a lot of injectors I counted 12, but not 100% sure. Their whole setup looks nice and clean. The Cosmo RE intake manifold has a lot of material to Extrude Hone out if you have the money or the time to remove all that excess material manually. I also remember the intake manifold being plumbed for NOS, and a very large throttle body at least 105mm mated to a modified Cosmo RE upper manifold.

Someone posted this picture before from a race a couple of years ago.

Does anyone know which system they are running now to run the 7.1 numbers?
