Edit- aram, you gotta show me how to drag man! California speedway is gonna have its street legals again every month, so maybe we can go there or something, I just hope I dont break my na diff

Your wife has a new turbo going in? I heard about the hydra. I have the Link but I can't find a shop that will install and fine tune it that I can trust. I also have a fully built head going in that is taking forever to do. If thats finished I will look at a small shot of nitrous but the mechanics are trying to tell me I can't run nitrous on a stock block which I think is bogus. I should be able to run up to 250rwp. That is the stock FMII status. Power is Power no matter what form. Do you know a shop that can do both?

Aram why are you so desperate to race everybody and there mother? Do you have something to prove? Sounds kinda fast and furious to me.

I honestly can't stand V8 swaps into an RX chassis, that's why I haven't done it to my FC. But even though I don't like it, I can't knock the proven performance of the setup. It is easy to go fast with an LS1 in these cars. And it is very reliable power. I don't see why everyone can't just like what you have and if you don't like what someone else did then just don't look at their cars. Just my .02

She does not have that turbo going in yet, that's the plan though. I would talk to tim @ speed force racing. He has built some damm nice cars and he is over off prospect in santee. He daily drives a stock block 500whp 350z and has built porsche's and supra's (up to 1000whp). He is really good, probably not real familar with the link but I am sure he can learn. Go by his shop and tell him the guy with the red turbo miata sent you by.

Chris, don't talk to me about 2x wides. Do you want some pics sent to you of the 5400sq ft house I am living in (with 2 other family members)? See ya later

No Im not knocking his V8 I think it's great. It's his attitude that blew away everything nice he had to say about it.

Aram there are plenty of V8's at the Q that will give you a run for your money if not destroy you. I don't see why your stuck on this forum when all you have to do is knock rotaries yourself. Kinda hypocriticle if you ask me. And thats my .02
