Re: Daytona RX7
Been busy removing old ecu wiring, old injector setup and will trial fit the ewp next few days and work out where it will live. Few weeks and my engine builder will take the car and wire up Haltech and do injectors, fuel rails and ignition setup. Intercooler piping also. Still lots to do.

Raceworks billet fuel filter, and more than I can’t remember.

Re: Daytona RX7
Wiring loom currently being made as well as intercooler piping and fuel inlet for custom tank with breather . Then will be start up and dyno tune. Dyno video to come as soon as I have it. Hope for some great number, actually not sure what hp/kw figure to expect but 300 to 400 would be plenty.
Sorry bout the sideway pics not sure how to get them right way around .

Re: Daytona RX7
Okay it’s finally all done and back at home.
280kw at wheels on safe tune 98. Drives and starts awesome. Dash is great also, have 3 different displays I’ve been flicking through. Going to re work the Centre fascia now as so many holes from the 4 51mm gauges I had in it previously. Some interior tidy up, and then maybe over Xmas break work out a cold air box . Enjoy the pics .

Re: Daytona RX7
Will get some video of this very soon, it’s sounds so good from inside the cabin so will be interesting to hear how it sounds from outside. Next outing I’ll get a mate to film it
