Hard to say which is best however, I recently heard that the Rx7 Specialties subframe interfers with Stock fd wheels. The Pettit version doesn't have this problem. If you decide you want to use the stock twins on your set-up, I have a used Pettit 20b downpipe that you may be interested in.

Check out Autotech Motorsports and A-spec Tuning. They have been very successful with these projects.

Thanks, I did see somwhere in this forum a member talking about doing akit for himself and said he would make one for anyone... It was about just using your own subframe and sending it to him to modify.. And that everything was keep in it's original place... I'll keep searching to find that here , but if anyone knows where this thread is please inform me... And yes T-Von a maybe be interested shortly...

I would go with GTORx7's (aka Logan) conversion. It seems very well thought out.
