Met up with that guy to get some logs. He had to transfer the data to his other computer to read it, so waiting on that.
He gave me a ride in his avant with upgraded pistons, rods, tial 605's (larger turbos than mine), running 30+ psi... holy ****. My car is slow. His estimates put his car ~100 hp higher than mine and he's still tuning. He's scheduled to dyno it at noribilt in a week or so, so it should be fun to see what numbers he's making.

I found a gold/orang '79 rx7 on CL the other day just outside of SA for $800... anyone want a dreadful rx7 that has been sitting in a garage for 15 years let me know and I'll find the link for ya'. Supposedly it was an ignition fuse that caused the car to sit for so long and now the carb needs to be rebuilt and that's it... riiiighht.

Anybody have a lift available and some suspension knowledge I can borrow or pay for services lol...I got some teins springs I need installed and a local shop wanted to charge me 300 dollars...I wouldn't think it'd be half that much if soo let me know or if you can refer me to a decent shop with some cheaper prices

If anything, I'm more envious of the fact that it's a widebody avant... it looks awesome!

Eh, I'm not really complaining lol. It was a fun ride. Of course, I'd love to have that set up but my car is plenty fast (when it's running properly). I can't imagine I'd want anything more than his car for a street car... that's way more than enough.
