Nice! I bought my Haltech, all its sensors and my coils from him. I'm seriously considering towing the RX-7 down to him for the initial tune. Any details?
 
I will post up as soon as all the details are ironed out. A lot of you guys aregonna think its overkill, but this is a show truck...
 
well i got out and got some s*** accomplished within the last few days!

i got out the dremel and the grinding stones and port matched my upper and lower intake manifold for the spacer and got it all bolted up. just need longer studs and some ballin hardware and i can call it complete!

hoping that i can mount my new coils under the uim. will be a bit before i can actually order them though, so i will have to wait and see...

hoping to get back out in the garage after i get off the phone with Chris from Ludwig Motorsports again. will update as updates are updated!
 
Just got off the phone with Chris from Ludwig Motorsports.

Got some parts on the way and a final game plan for the truck!

Big things should be happening in the next few months as parts start arriving.

Bad thing is is i go back to North Dakota for two weeks on the 11th if July, but hoping i make enough money to buy everything i need to get this truck DRIVING when i get back!

Sidenote-- Aem smart coils have been ordered!

Also ordered some stuff for intercooler piping mounting and such!
 
Wow, those pipes looks like they're close to the tires! Also, with that intercooler pipe routing are you going to be able to access the oil filler tube and/or the crank angle sensor? Just a thought. You'll probably be playing with the CAS a lot during the initial start up and tuning stage so it's probably best if you can easiler remove and reinstall it without having to remove IC pipes.
 
The piping isnt as close to the tires as the pics make it look, and i believe there is enough room for everything!

If not, i will redo it...
 
Well i got a bit done but unfortunately i had to go back to North Dakota for a couple weeks and cant post pics from my phone.

But i do need to catch up this thread very badly...
 
alright well s***, its been a minute since ive updated this b****...

got in my aem coils... these things are fucken sweet!
