Fixed my brake pressure problem since I installed a bigger booster, installed the S5 alternator, messed around with the coil over heights. I hope the test drive in the morning goes well.

Not exactly sorted, but it's a lot better. At least it is drivable now. I'll see you Sunday, Marco.

Mark - You had the CF fenders painted to go on the DS? Did you just paint them lighter so the CF came through? That is rather sweet.

I have a boost controller to install also, I am just worried it is not fast enough reacting to control spike. I have some spiking now but no more than 13 psi which is fine, I am afraid if I put the boost controller in and up the boost even a pound or 2 I am going to get spikes in the 15lb range or higher. I want to do the dual hallman MBC as I heard they have a fast enough reaction to not get spikes even with a fully open exhaust and intake. I could also just restrict my exhaust a little, I do want to get the RB dual and quiet it down a little.

I drove my rx7 up to the salesguy who sold me my car in 1994. I went to high school with him and know im to this day. He works for Benz now. He was quite impressed with the car and was surprised to see so many OEM parts he never knew about.
