whilst racing my mate in his calibra turbo he said flames about a foot long were coming out of my exhaust, is this normal?
With a free-er than stock exhaust system yes. Dumping the cat for a mid pipe will pretty much guarantee flames, if used with a rich map - the base map on say the Power FC is a good example.
Once tuned properly the flames and popping/banging will generallly reduce as from what I\'ve seen you generally take a fair wad of fuel out.

PS Matt - where do you live? I\'m in Newbury.
I live in shaw at the top of kiln hill, with the black RX.
What colour is yours?
Well well well....how long you had it?
Only black one I\'ve seen around here is an L-plate. Parked outside Texaco in Parkway last time I think but that was ages and ages ago. Where u get it from?
I have a silver 96 but it lives in the re:worx workshop in portsmouth, its having a 20B shoved in it over the coming months...
I have geff\'s (re:worx) bridgeport red j-plate on occassion and will have a black RZ up here for a bit soon. We should meet up for some fun with the Nova and Co. kids some time :D I had geffs car a couple of weeks ago and spent a couple of saddo evenings terrorizing the locals :rollin

Nice, yeah definatley mate, i love cruising round and intimidating the parkway crew.
I got mine from torque imports about 3 months ago. You should come round and have a look.
Ive drove past a red one on kiln road a few times, not sure if that was you or not.
and whats a 20B??
Cool. Trouble around here is there\'s no talent that puts up a half decent fight :D
There was a guy with a red 200SX who used to give it some - but the last time I had him his car decided to shit itself while we were stood about having a chat afterward - dense white smoke every where, he was on his 2 turbo in 6 months too :(
You have a 13B motor (2 rotors) in your FD. The 20B motor (3 rotors) was used in a plush 2 door sedan that mazda sold in Japan called the Eunos Cosmo...

yeah i know what you mean, i had an r33 skyline chicken out of a race cos he said i would toast him, and an s2000 on the lights but he wouldnt race. There a quick audi rs4 with nos, it wont the gti international show 0-60 in under 4 secs.
so will have 3 rotarys make produce much more power. This bloke called carl came round and said someone was doing a 3 rotary
way way more ;)
and please tell me you thrashed the calibra :p
jesus 1000bhp, how much is that costing. will it fit in the engine bay?
yeah i thrashed the calibra turbo, it used to be mine, it was pretty quick 270bhp, we did 160mph in it on the wa home from bournmouth once. But my RX is so much quicker
Mine wont be 1000hp!!!!!!!!!!!
