Re: Behind the scenes at MAPerformance (pics updated often)
One of the fab guys was rocking a new lid, I had to get a pic of it. Pretty sweet if you ask me!
Couple goodies going in a 2G DSM w/ a 6 bolt conversion. Should make for some good power!

Re: Behind the scenes at MAPerformance (pics updated often)
This may be a familiar car to some in the local drift scene here in the midwest.
This car has been down almost a year.
He finally finished it and brought it in for some Jordan love.
This here is a single cam ka24e. Tuned now and ready to go slideways.
Hope to see this thing ripping up the local events here real soon!

Re: Behind the scenes at MAPerformance (pics updated often)
This is what happens when you run 60psi unexpectedly on the drag strip trying to run 7's balls out!
That head gasket didn't stand a chance lol.
You know what they say "You gotta pay to play"!
We'll have this thing up and running in no time!
Got a date at the track in less then 2 weeks.

Our Master Mechanic Kyle welding up our 94 RX-7 race car.
We built this car from the ground up and it's Kyle here's job to make sure she runs perfect.
We're still looking for that elusive 7 sec pass, but we have half a season left to keep chasing it!
1000+whp from a 2.4L we'll get that 7 any day now!

Thought I would post a progress pic to this one. Here is the manifold now being assembled and fitted on the motor.
Almost finished now! Just needing to be welded up and she's ready to go.

Re: Behind the scenes at MAPerformance (pics updated often)
Trans didnt like the power so the Evo is being slapped together so we can get out to Power Cruise this weekend. At least it was now not right before the shootout  |

Re: Behind the scenes at MAPerformance (pics updated often)
is there a thread or story somewhere on the internet that describes what part of the transmission didn't like the power?

We are prettr sure the planetary gear set in there blew apart from the tire shake at PG. It was just on its last leg before the dyno session.
