Default My Type R on the Cover of Turbo

I know the guys on the Type R board are not into turbos, So I figured I would share my excitemnt here.
Been doing this a long time, it's great to get noticed, Thanks for looking.

The whole thing was built by us .
It really does make you feel good. Like I said, I have been doing this a long time.

It is really hard to get any kind of attention by the Magazines, Some of them want you to some major advertising with them before the show interest.

Congrats to the guy on D sport also, very cool car.

Thanks guys, yes stock fuel lines, 14V supplying the pump through a relay.
Manifold is one of our shorty tube manifolds.
Precsion turbo, based on a GT35R with a larger( Secret) comp wheel, 3.25 " down pipe.
Did intend on making what it did, I figured while it's strapped on the dyno, why not max everything out.

first off congrats!! i think this is the issue a local guy, to me, is featured in teh readers rides section (black fc rx7 from idaho) last month i just had my integra featured on Tunerzine, i couldnt imagine being in a magazine!!

secondly a local guy to me, made 645whp on an almost stock fuel system, only mods were 1000cc injectors and a walbro...probably not the safest thing...but it can be done! screw the haters, great job!!
