im in san antonio tx.

it usto be a base modle non turbo rx7 but i have done 5 lug hub swap. tii breaks, tii engine swap transmission drive shaft rear end and axles.

i have a "stage 2" t3/t4 turbonetic high flow turbo with upgraded injectors FD fuel pump and a pocket loger Rtek ecu system to run it all.

im not going for power i am only at 4psi because i am learning my own tuning and have yet to master ironing out lean spots in the fuel map. with an efficiently ported stock waist gate i am only at 4psi. but let me tell u. 4psi on this turbo is ALOT more air then 8 psi on the stock turbo. i would guess its as efficient as 12 psi on stock turbo? seeing that i am having a hard time enough fuel there when i try turning up the boost.


so any way... she's come a LONG way....

Nice area Jessica. Are you attending UTSA? Before I moved back down to HECK (Valley) I lived at Blanco/Bitters for almost a year.

Give me a call sometime Tuesday evening. I jave some questions for you.
 
i dont attend any school. i actually learned everything there was by myself @ first then got into a shop and they were teaching me everything i had to know. i started out with spray paint lol, actually made that crap look good surprisingly. duplicolor paint for cars is a nice medium to work with if you are cheep. just need to lay enough on and sand down to a gloss finish.
 
Hi, welcome to the forum. That is a HUGE transition you made there, very beautiful car. :xyxthumbs:

Love the work you are doing. Big Mazda fan here, so I am really impressed with both the mechanical and appearance mods you are accomplishing. :dblthumb2: :dblthumb2:
