lol, you know like half the members of PT browse this board regularly right? :p good lookin car though man... keep us posted on that turbo install, and let us know what the kl-ze is puttin out after the turbo.

lol, i didnt know PTers come here.....oh well.....those are the only pics im gonna show even after its done.....
by the way, im boosting the 03, not the ZE, i'm only gonna be using the ZE manifold cuz of the better flow/bigger runners |
thats sweet man. i used to have a probe..all stock.but it could hang with the best to a point. that thing is gonna be fast as hell when its done. nice job on gettin the car to that point.

I take it that your shop will be tunning everything? Please post your dyno when you're finished. I'm sure you'll see some good numbers. thanks for sharing BTW, how much were the RX-7 rims? |
