fc nut is on a distinguished road
Thank you for the input, I appreciate it. I knew that the reni doesn't last long boosted, I was curious if it would be different when using the se engine parts. I was sure it would last longer with the se's 3mm seals. I guess the second option is to port it and I've heard that you can't bridgeport a reni. Is that true?

JL1RX7 will become famous soon enough
It's not the apex seals that's the issue. It's the coolant seals, they moved them compared to other 13B's. Bridgeporting can be done. But again it's a lot of work for little gain.
