not real sure bacon, but I would think a stock one would be 20-22 area.



Don, you going to do the King of street? I was pondering it but I think I will be a high 6 area and I know a few in the class that are good for 6.6-7's. So I would not have a chance. Well see. I hope to hit the dyno again and then the track in the next few weeks. If I can pull out 550-575 I may be good for some 6.5's!!

I'm getting less than that, but that's probably my driving. My car is a 2-speed, fast and stop.

Yeah, I probably will go if only to watch and check out some rides. Still haven't finished my 7. Between looking after the baby and the sucky weather, it might be another week or so before I can crank it up.

I saw Dan Sunday morning (well, sort of... I saw his patrol car) at Lowes. I came out to see an HPD patrol car parked in front of my Jeep and knew it was Dan from the rotor hanging from the rearview mirror. I had forgot to get sand paper so I went back in to get some. I walked down the main isle looking for Dan in the processes but didn't see him. When I finally made it to the register I asked the cashier if a cop had checked out recently and she said "oh yeah, he just came through my line". I paid for my stuff and rushed out but Dan was already gone.

Thumbs up

IT'S ALIVE!!!!
Started the first try. I went into the PFC and adjusted the injector settings and let it run till it got up to operating temps and everything burnt off. I have a few minor issues that don't seem to be engine related, so I think everything is good!

Hey Mike,
I am not sure who the owner is yet, but he is supposed to give me a call. The car is at a small backyard garage over by my house off Browns Ferry west of Trianna. He just got it and had some sort of turbo issues and dropped it off to get the turbos rebuilt by a mechanic by the name of Blake Daniels. Nice guy, but has never worked on a rotary before. He wants to pay me to help with it so he gets it done right.

The problem is...he already sent off the turbos to Majestic Turbos and they called him back and said that the core is worthless and can't be rebuilt. I am trying to get him to go with some BNR's and a PFC or a possibly a single setup, but he wants me to talk to the owner first.

I have no idea what kind of budget the owner has, but it is a good condition R1. A bit dirty sitting at the shop, but everything is OEM except the cat-back. Don't know the mileage.

On a side note, I saw a really nice silver FD near "Nothing But Noodles" off Airport drive last week. Check out the pics. Beautiful Silver with nice ADR mesh wheels, and a hinsonmotorsports sticker in the back window. Possibly an LSx?
Anyone know who the owner is? Maybe one of you locals?

Don....do you have a Laptop and Dataloggit for the PFC?
