Cool, a fellow rotorhead. Yea ive pretty much stopped posting in the tech sections of RX7club because the search function pretty much covers everything i could ever need lol. and ive been using the search function on here and ive found answers to many of my questions already. is the motor in your avatar the motor in your 7? Whats been done to it? Now since i have a second car, i can work on my 7 even more. I havent decided what im going to do to my 7 tho, im thinking camden supercharger with a half-bridge, maybe even full; maybe turbo swap, i dont know, but this conversation should probably be saved for PMs or RX7club lol. is your name on RX7club the same as on here?

if you are going to replace your intake, you might as well clean your throttle body as well since you will have it off anyways. its a good time to change your plugs too if you need to...AND change your TPS

No, my motor is just a base rebuild 12A, but it puts out 102 RWHP! Pretty impressive considerig it's just new springs and corner seals, using original 200K mi carb.

Anyway, my screen name is the same on both forums.

lol, nope. I use the screen name because back in the day the SVT Cobra R used to be my favorite car, and i started using it on forums and it just kind of stuck, so I continue to use it.

Hey there Andrew. You aint too far up 99 from me. Lots of mild trails to get you aquainted with your taco round these parts. Head over to El Dorado National Forest and have a heck of a time riding trails. See you around.
