I doubt your car is untuned. If it is, its amazing you haven't blown anything, cause those mods would make you run lean.

If it is tuned, then thats a bit different than just full exhaust and intake. The RX7 I'm going to be picking up (hopefully) this week has the Pettit intake, Small IC, full 3" exhaust, no smog stuff, pully, and ECU. At 12lbs. of boost it dyno'd somewhere in the 320's.

Blake,

You have to tune the car to keep it from running lean. Thats a requirement, so yea it was tuned, but it was running rich. 10:5 to 11:1.

If ANYONE responds to calpilot's trolling, you're an idiot.

[B]Jesus ing christ. You guys make me sick. I could only read two pages of this shit before I finally got fed up and had to say something.

You RX7 guys (not all of you, but most) are really pissing me to high hell. My s2000 caught fire, so I'm about to pick up an FD this week. And you know what? The way you guys are acting, I don't think I'll ever admit to having any contact with you. And I have had a bit (Same name at rx7club.com)

THERE WAS ONE ING PERSON WHO SAID ANYTHING NEGATIVE ABOUT THE RX7.

And you'd think you got bent over my a guy and taken to town. That ONE guy OBVIOUSLY was a troll. I don't know how many times I've made fun of the S2000 guys for responding to trolls, but you RX7 guys take the cake. Its obvious this guy is just trying to piss you off, and look at how you act? How old are you guys? 5?

Look at all the positive praise for the RX7 everyone else said. (Ignore SHIRI, he doesn't count.) Its a hell of a lot more than anything negative. Most of us realize the FD is faster, and most of us praise it. And you guys come in here and jump our nuts for what reason? Cause we have a troll? Talk about incorrect stereotypes.

Jesus Christ guys. Yes, the stock RX7 is faster, but if it has a bad driver, then an S2000 CAN beat it. I lost to one up in Fort Worth (Hell, Rich, you may know him). Went from a stop. He got a jump of abut a car length and then stayed there the entire way. It was pretty close. He looked like he was running a bit rich, but he said it was in pretty good condition. Traction was an issue for both, but had he been less skilled, I might have been able to keep up. So now what? Am I gonna get MY balls busted because I said anything can happen on the street?

What the HELL does that have to do with my post? I didn't say ANYTHING about whether the S2000 is popular or not. That wasn't what was at issue. It was how the RX-7 guys are acting.
