Weight reduction?? YES Please..

Hehe in case you are wondering which rx7 that turbo is going in, its mine:).

lookin for 500whp@ 22psi and 550+@ 25psi on c16. That combined with the fact my car will weigh sub 2500 lbs...:) Ill be happy with 475@15 psi...

Ps.jeff: we need to get japtrix to fab you up a t4 manifold so we can toss my turbo on your car while im doing my fuel system, and take bets on what rpm it spools at....;p

move to arizona, tucson or phoenix area. i rarely use the a/c, but then i see people driving around at 7am, with the windows up. pussies.
I rarely use the AC here in FL. I'd eventually like to install a roof vent like the ones on the UK STi, but my car has to have the right look first.

My car has No ac either, ditched it along with the power steering, that alone is 45-50 lbs worth of random garbage. Engine bay is so much cleaner now without those pulleys and compressor in the way. Also thinking about relocating my coils down there away from my motor. I actually think we could have it done pretty cheaply( the manifold for mp5jeff) ...and that way if you wanted to upgrade to a t4 later on you already have the manifold for it...the only bad part is hooking up the water lines on my turbo since its water/oil cooled, gotta keep the dual BB cool:)
 
how do you tighten the belt if you only lose the power steering? i can't live without A/C here in houston...too hot
 
the tensioner...its on the right side..if it's your daily drive, you might want to really think about doing this before you do it...
