Here's a picture of it:


Sorry for poor quality, but it was taken with my cellphone.

What your looking at here, is the Boost pattern, IT Temp, and WaterTemp and obvouslly Knock.

From what I understand it was rebuilt 30k ago and ported eetc with all the good stuff. Its definately a go fast motor. Fro better exhaust flow you use t2 housings on an na for a little more top end. Ill be doing that on my vert next summer.

hey everyone, I was just wondering if anyone had a coupling that goes on top of the turbo manifold, mine has a crack in it and is forking up my boost. I was trying to avoid ordering one from the factory. know what i mean blue turbo coupling or black one. it could be pink and id buy it from you

thanks jarrett

You know, I did not know that about my engine. That must have been done without my knowledge when I had it rebuilt. I was only aware of the street port and some pineapple sleeves.

Anyone seen Borat? I have the complaint, filed yesterday in California, of the University of South Carolina kids in the movie. Apparently they're either terribly ashamed or scared for their lives, because they filed as John Doe 1 and 2 (1 was not yet 21 in the movie). If they weren't either ashamed or scared, they could have filed the suit in South Carolina. It must be significant to make your lawyers and yourselves travel to the other side of the country to litigate.

Oh, this is a meet thread... What time? I have a FOUR HOUR exam, from 9 to 1 that Saturday.

Ok Zack heres your update. It doesnt look good. the hole in the rear housing means its trash. We also may have a problem with the exhaust inserts, they look melted.

Well Chris, looks like either Dregg100 or Ken have a solution to my problem. Souper! Ken, good to see you're still around; I thought you'd have gotten away from the RX-7s by now.
