im sure next weekend ill come crying to you to fix it =D

btw im gona post up a pick of the first time i mocked up the IC piping i want ur opinion on where you would put the BOV...though space is going to be more limited once its in for real since i didnt put the rad or condencer in yet

Thanks Dave.... in a few months I need to build an Aluminum one for my truck so I'll keep some measurements etc and see what we can figure out. The one in the FC I welded strait to the chassis, just need to coat it now.

I've always kept my BOV's as close to the TB's as possible, like Bill said, makes more sense to have it there.

Cool, glad ya figured that out. I dunno, it's worth it to have sometimes. It doesn't matter how many starter kills, fuel cuts, etc etc you put in the car, it's just as easy to tow the fucker. It doesn't make all that much sense for me becuase of where I am, I don't take alot of trips, and when I do the cars are locked up, not to mention I have a ton of neighbors etc.... so I wouldn't, but for $99, it's already there, I don't know what their monitoring contracts are like but it might be something to look into.

Yeah, but honestly, my LS weighs like 25lbs, the sound deadener weighs 25lbs, if it was a track car I would strip it out, but I want to make this thing more of a touring car that's competive on the auto-x's/track days, not a track car that I drive on the street, so the sound and heat rejection that the LS plus the factory offers is where's it's at for me

So does heat. Heat gun to soften the shit up, then some 3M Adhesive remover for what's left over works awesome as well


*** If I EVER catch anyone jacking an RX7 up by the seems, I'm going to jam that jack so far up your ass that I'll be able to use your face as the jack pad to show you were to properly jack from while operating the jack with your leg

I think i'll leave it in but fix the hack job for wiring. Then later on i'll call up and have them come check it out.

lol just by looking under my car i can see the old owners did that to my car quite a bit. Not to mention a dent where it looks like the jack sliped or something.
