I would also like to congradulate Pete and the guys at XS. I would like to state that it is true that Pete is on like his 6th motor and that is one reason why i trust XS so much.

Rotary motors are not something that you can detonate on and keep going. Basically detonation means POP. Pete pushes his car to the limit to find out what will work. XS has experimented on so many different combinaitons of injectors, pumps, ignition, spark plugs, fuel, timing etc....

Knowing that they test things on their own cars and not on customers is a nice feeling. Proven performance before they start messing around with my car is a plus in my book.

I had the T04S and pushed 333hp and right now I'm getting my once blown engine rebuild @ RP. I'll post my dyno in the next 2 weeks. I have 2 questions though... what size micky thompsons fit on the stock rims? also I just got an AVC-R installed and have a PFC, so all I should plan on running is 17psi w/o changing my maps on my PFC? Thanks for any help... XS I pm'ed you.
Have a good one,
Ryker

12lbs on race gas, my next dyno should be fairly impressive from what I've heard from other guys w/ the kit, since I'll have a Ported engine with a FMIC and a boost controller instead of a stock engine with SMIC and no boost controller. Can't wait.... If I get my car back on next saturday and drive it constantly for the next week I should have it broken in enough for a dyno within two weeks of getting it back.
