If I'm not there I'll cry. Mosport is bad luck for me this year... Always something wrong before or at the track. First my brakes weren't in condition to go, then my shocks were shot so I couldn't go again, then the time I do go I blew the motor due to aggressive tuning. Now, I'm desperately trying to get the car together with a single turbo I still haven't received >.< . Fun times with RX-7's always. I'll be there though regardless lol !

I noticed your car has not moved when I swung by today. Your going to have to wave that majic wand to get a single turbo installed in time.

See you at the track.

Dave didn't say much. At that time I was there he was busy freezing his *** off outside. Man it was cold out there. Dam snow!! I didn't really get to see what was inside the boxes.Jjust what was exposed. From what I saw it looks awesome.
I didn't think you would want me to play with your stuff but it was sure tempting to go and look

I think I'll be ready. The turbo is in my car, just needs finishing touches. Unfortunately, there won't be time to install the fuel system because it won't mate with the stock primary rail like I thought (I have to use the full kit) so I didn't have primary injectors cause I wasn't planning on using them until I knew how much fuel I needed. My current 550/1300cc should be good enough for 14 PSi I hope

Looks like I'm gonna have to tune it the day before lol!

Maybe Friday afternoon, whenever my cars ready . I'll be there in the morning lol. Although, I'm gonna do some street tuning first before dyno tuning. Plus I might have to wait an hour to burn off all the oil in the exhaust/intake.

Weather looks like crap.
I like my women wet, but not my car.
Me and the FD are staying home, Neo-style.

Yeti, I'm sure we'll have a winter get together to work on the race car, especially if we install a Haltech and rewire everything.

No, it was the old turbo. Basically the front rotor is leaking oil like crazy, it spirts out the spark plug holes when cranking. So its only running on the rear rotor. Both rotors have solid compression. Dave thinks the front rotor hydrolocked with all the oil and since oil doesn't compress the oil had to go somewhere, and probably went through the o-rings damaging them. So if assumptions are correct, just need to open the motor, replace the seals, and put her back in.
