Definitly looking WAY better. I'm proud of ya buddy!
I had to go out of town Friday, and I decided to drive the turbo FB. I have spent ALOT of time tuning this thing for 15psi, and descent fuel mileage. HOLY CRAP. The old girl really impressed me. 167.8 miles. 6.531 gallons. Do the math. That is 25.69 mpg. Not too shabby for 400hp

If I make it to next sundays meet we gotta do some runs, I raced a couple 450+ hp rx7's this weekend and they wouldn't pull me hard until top of 3rd and on to 4th. Top mount does have it's advantages, but anyway, if you pull me up top then u just might be right

Anthony, you have to remember your not comparing apples to apples. You have a stock port 8.5 compression engine. I am running 9.4 compression with a massive street port. You car wieghs about 500 pounds more also.
90% of the time the AFRs were between 14.4 and 14.7. It was hard driving the car with only bearly touching the throttle. Long wonders why I wanted to stay with a S5 N/A trans, it's called a tall overdrive

well went to mooresville tonight and ran the car. @ 7psi i ran a 8.8 @ 78mph 1.9 60 foot 5.6 half track. im really pleased with where this is going. haltech and tune coming soon. Josh, the car looks awesome. Not necessarily my cup of tea with the airbrushing but whoever did it did an excellent job.

No hood? What's up with that?
I will not be able to hand around much tomorrow, but I will be making an appearance. I will have the little boy with me, so I cant go play
Anywho, I am going to be picking up a '96 Plymouth Gand Voyager. Long story about this one. Short story is I am getting it for $500. The good part is, the thing looks and runs awsome. The bad part is, I am going to have to rebuild the transmission. O'well, it's always something

Hey all,
I'm installing an aftermarket power antenna that only has 3 wires: blue, red, and black (ground). Does anyone know if I can patch this in thru the harness in the trunk? If so, what goes where and do I need to install a crossover relay for the trigger? The head unit is aftermarket also. Thanks for any info y'all can give.

well it was a good turnout. thanks to everyone who followed my limping rotary home lol. fortunately after tearing down the engine the cause of the problem was a blown exhaust mani gasket that allowed cold air to draw in and hit the apex seal and shattered it. but on the brighter side it did it at the exhaust port so it did absolutely no damage to the housing or rotor. but thanks again to john and ant for followin me back. should be back on the road in a week or so.
