    Contact email is [email protected], cell phone is 314-807-2170. All types of vehicles considered but SM is indeed intriguing!

    Thanks Travis! i'll contact him next week. For Mr. Izzy, my "spook" work has ramped up a bit so I may be a few weekends short on getting the RX-7 ready. Hence the need for a rental.

    Don't send Trey out to that pack of wolves!!!! He's too young! He'll think all cars are supposed to be fast and handle well without any real issues! He'll think that you're only supposed to check fluids and tires while waiting for the next session...not madly thrashing to change wheel bearings or cracked rotors or checking fuel pressure in the RX7!!!

    Still looking. I have ruled out SM as a choice since I probably don't know what to do with all that horsepower! ITB/ITC would be ideal.

    i bet a good ITB volve/VW puts out as much power (if not more) than a SM.

    115-120 for the good SMs.

    Seeing how my POS ITB Bimmer dynoed at a massive 88.7 HP before we started modification, I figure anything else is just way too much. Kind of a running joke for my car here in the St. Louis area. It just got the headers and an exhaust installed. I may even adjust the valves and do a tune up before the March race. I'll put it back on the dyno next month sometime to see if we achieved any real gains. I'm hoping for a triple figure number!

    Thanks to all those who have contacted me today for a rental vehicle. Looks like I may have a choice of two.
