Dyno Day!!! - Charlotte, NC - Nov. 20th
Awesome! Yeah... sadly, I didn't have enough time to finish getting my 7 ready to drive down. I'll be there with my Supra and my MR2 instead though.
So it will really make my day to see some nice RX7s of any generation there!

Ok, it is TWO days before the dyno day and I will bet my last dollar some bodies rotary will break today or tomorrow and not make it. Lol
I don’t know why but it ALWAYS happens! Ha-ha
I am trying to be one of the first in line since I plan on heading out to the Auto Show.

Soo...I didn't see any 7's there besides myself, Catch-22 and Sean....did I miss you guys?
Anyways, I came back later in the evening and jumped on. Boost creeped to 15 at peak torque but dropped down to 12 at max hp, timing is VERY conservative (8-9 degrees at full boost). Looks like I should have held it a little longer during the pull though cuz hp was rising pretty quick and tq curve stayed relatively steady...

My best pull out of the three was 282 hp uncorrected and 233.2 ft-lbs, each pull I went to 6.5k...should see 300 pretty easy with some more aggressive timing and longer pulls

Thanks a ton for coming by and hanging out for a while Anthony! You were the only RX7 to show up until the very end. I had just missed you and the other guys that showed up later. I gotta say, who ever had that Red 3rd Gen... Holy crap, that is amazing for you to make that power with a blown turbo. Damn. haha. Wish i could have seen it.
I love the red FD too....i had a wet dream after I got home after hearing it dyno...damn car vibrated the shops keyboards in the floor. The shop had some damn nice builds going on and everyone there was nice. I had a great time even though I lost a rotor the night before.
