I saw this and E-Bay and didn't know quite what to think. I didn't know if the guy is really on to something, or what?

Thanks man. yes it should make 500+ on high boost. BUt I'm only
shooting for 400. and that is still over powering the FB body LOL so 500 would be point less
hahaha Can you say no traction.

Agreed, that kind of power is not necessary for the street....but man is it cool to see that thing spin 3rd and 4th like a FWD does in 1st

we definitely need a group shirt. i'll be down for it.


in other news, finally got around to rebuilding the carb last night, and been messing with the idle today, it just doesn't feel quite right, there's a bit of a stumble while trying to take off so you have to feather it a few times for it to catch before letting off the clutch, can't quite get it right now.

but at least it doesn't stutter at 5k rpm from lack of fuel in 3rd gear lol .

Sounds like the accelerator pump is out of adjustment.

Hey 83gslRX-7, if you can do something with this image, that would be cool. I would love to get some 4" decals madeup if we could.
