This is going to be badass!
If I wouldn't have built my 427 LSX for nitrous, this is exactly the plans I had.
Congrats bro, keep us posted and please post more pictures!

OMG...in an RX7!

Glad to know it fits

What are you using for a rear end. I see you mention its a DTE diff. Can I get some more info about it please. I am in the process of building a pretty stout rx7 and the stock Turbo 2 diff isnt going to last me
