      Fuel system is almost done just have the cross over left to do. Will get that done tomorrow and then pull the motor out and swap out oil pan's and work on the oil drain for the turbo. Than after my torque converter show's up put it all back together and figure out radiator hose's and heater hose's

              Got my b.o.v. today. But i was able to drive it before i got home and saw that it showed up. Car run's really good considering it's not tuned at all. I also have traction issue's as soon as it start's to boost the tire's break loose.

                      I really have no idea on how much power it is making yet. Only seeing about 5-6 psi right now. Yes my name is Doug

                            Well i guess i should give you all an update. Started tuning the car under boost and damaged the rear-end ( in the words of my buddy "it was whining like an un-paid hooker" ) So i ordered a ford 9 from moser and got an upgraded drive shaft.

                                i went with 3.00's for now. So far it seem's to be working really nice. I'll get some more picture's up soon going to start a photo bucket soon after i find all the picture's. Plus I'll be signing up for youtube to upload some vid's

                                How's the rx-7 coming along?

                                    you are right in there with what I ran with my turbo 6.0L, was doing 11.9-12.2@120-125 on actual street tires (firestone indy 500's) at 8-10lbs. Keep turning it up I ran a few passes in the 135mph area at 15#

                                      i'm stilling in the tuning process. my buddy took out some fuel and added it in other place's. we are planning on turning up the boost some more if we can get the boost controller to work right with the waste gate i'm running.
