Very ******* nice. It just ZOOOMS on by. This is the way an RX7 should sound!

 

thanks! me and my friends are going to shoot some more highway / tunnel videos next weekend if the weathers good.

 

Whats your engine setup and whats the power to the ground? I followed your youtube videos and i found myself looking at the stock intercooler, i was a bit surprised

 

around 300- 350hp tops .. untuned at stock boost.. garrett turbo , i have a big front mount but im very very lazy and dont feel like relocating my battery so i havent got around to installing it lol , but running a microtech ECU, racing beat dual exhaust.. external wastegate, 1000cc injectors, big *** afco racing rad.. stock internals still kickin with good compression at 144,000

 

Amazing. Slap that FMIC on and get a real tune, then you should be seeing some awesome power

 

thats what im aimin for! its slightly tuned right now ... but not tuned for my turbo setup/for the stock mount... i want to make 350 - 400 for daily driving, which may be really pushing the stock internals .. thats my only worry, i might have to sell the car though because it keeps bombing my local emissions tests... if i pass im chuckin a full or half bridge engine in there late spring / early summer!

 

nice goals..i wouldnt go brigde for a daily though

 

nice video

 

thanks guys. im thinking of going half bridge for a daily driver.. i know sombody that has one and it seems to be treatin him good. runs 11's in the 1/4 mile so you could say it gets to the grocery store quite fast

 

Its kinda hard to believe anywhere around 350whp with a stock IC and 10psi. Maybe you're making around 300whp which sounds more reasonable. BTW, you dont need to relocate your battery to install a front mount IC. I installed my Greddy 2 Row RSPL front mount and it still retains the stock battery tray and battery with PS.

 

yea boost spikes till it hits 10 when its really cold outside... so prob 300-325 it pulls hardd! anyways, im not sure about the battery relocation dude. my cars from japan and theres a bunch of crap there i woul dhave to relocate. i could make it work with a tiny *** battery which is what ive been trying to scout out for the past while

 

You could honestly use a Miata sealed battery then if you wanted to free up some space. Im actually using one now even though my IC fit perfect with a regular size battery. Here is an older pic of when I first installed the Greddy RSPL, notice the regular size battery.

 

my rad is wider then yours and my coil packs ill have to relocate + my overflow bottle..
