However, that RX7 is SIIIIIIIIIIIICK. And it's still on pump gas, it's built for E85 but he keeps blowing out the spark on his LS2 truck coils at high boost

WHats all done to the RX7...never heard of truck coils having difficulty maintaing spark! those things are used on 1500 hp builds!!!
RX7 does look impressive on a kick!
******* TA is no ways near 700 rwhp, I think your right, stock with blower, he probably bought it that way someone told hime a bunch of ****, and he doesnt know any better

There is what power the car has, and how fast it actually runs, and then there are people and their claims of BS...

Hey Beaver...
Did you see the newspaper...Justin Stuckey got 18 months federal penn, and has to pay $2million in restitution for his shady loans he did under Maxim Mortgage. BUT its only something like $500 a month, and they are waiving all fees/interest on the $2million..
that sucks...when I met him he seemed like a nice guy.
On the upside, I have a 18 year old moving to Ft. Wayne to go to IPFW, met her on the internet...when she was 17, she said she was dating a 47 year old....she is allready broken in!! God, her parents are really going to miss her....

Just talked to Brian @ LME. The 4.030 coated, nitrous pistons from Wiseco are backordered. We decided to go with 4.005 bore instead. That'll make a 402. He also said they'll be assembling the motor the week after next. Still getting the info on fuel system and cam profile from Joe. Nate said he'd start the engine removal next week.
To who ever is goin down to Muncie tonight...I dont know what all you guys take with you but i will have some tools, a floor jack, and that type of stuff if you need anything like that look for the black Dodge Mega cab with a white trailer. We wont have everything but we can try to help out with what we have

I also went back and looked at what his problems were with his igntion. He's not blowing out the spark but actually frying the coils themselves. He originally had LS1s, then switched to LS2s, then switched to the truck coils. The truck coils have been somewhat better on the pump gas tune. Also keep in mind that rotary's fire a leading and a trailing spark plug 3 times per rotation and he revs to 9000rpm. Here's the link to the thread where they talk about his issues. I said the exact same thing you guys are:

It's still progressing nicely. Blake's been working his magic (along with putting up with my crap ) and I've been doing my best not to screw stuff up (and stay out of Blake's way ) Interior is 90% in, electrical what nots are just about done, rear suspension has been removed, bead blasted, and reinstalled (minus the hubs which just put ARP studs in and will be getting new bearings), front suspension has been removed, and I just bead blasted it today at work, so that will probably go on tonight. Still need to build the Ford 8.8" IRS diff and finish assembling the axles, finish the down pipe, run all the oil and vaccum lines, build the cold side, build the cooling system, build the fuel system, build all the brake lines etc etc I'm sure there's tons of stuff I'm forgeting. It's not to far off from being able to start it but WAY far from being driveable

d1sc @ 12psi. Epp did the tuning and engine work. last I herd it put down around 650whp w filter on, 700whp w/ out the filter. His problem is the tranny is still stock and it don't shift for **** under any kind of power. He was granny shiftin it badly. No he didn't buy the car modded, bought it bone stock. It's the TA that use to be cam, headers, gears, that raced kenny's old procharged c5 about 4yrs ago.

And WTF does he have on for an air filter that cost him 50 wheel HP (that's ~70 crank horsepower)?
Not saying it's not 700 RWHP, but both of those things make absolutely no ******* sense to me.
