yeah on the one hand its kinda good cause the old motor wouldnt pass smog, and it used lots of oil, on the other hand we missed a track day and now i actually have to change it

I've seen video of the engine in a rx going it was awesome...

My friend Shin was running down I-270 here at about 90 when he sees a cop in the median up ahead...

Guess what he does? Instead of slamming the brakes he downshifts to fourth and blows it...

He said it got to 12,000 rpm's before it poped... When we took it apart on of the rear apex seals was gone and I mean destroyed...

I was suprised only one apex seal went... The engine would still run just not very well...

just got mine put together I don't plan on blowing it any time soon...

P.S.

I want Turbo II's racer girl She's got some Tig ol' Bitties...
