today is known for wasting a C5 on the intersate big time. Pretty much no traffic situation, I was on cruise at 80. Passed the C5 real slow, he gets upset shoots forward,,still on cruise. Pass him slowly again. This time it is speed, brake, speed, brake. Well when he braked the third time I gave him third gear(I was down to 75 or so) he never recovered after I hit fourth. I got out of it around 140 because traffic was coming up,,,back to cruise on 80, of course he blew by; guess who got pulled over about 4 miles down the road by Arkansas State Trooper ,,sorry I had to give him a beep-beep on the horn; even though I am too old for this sh*t and know better.

A few years ago, Stillen didn't make much, if anything, for the Rx-7. Maybe you are thinking of the 300zx... That's was stillens bread and butter for ever.

I was the one posting on that thread about the 951.

I've got a '93 rx-7. The injectors and pump don't need to be upgraded until well over 300 at the wheels. The stock injectors can support 350 at the wheels and the pump probably could as well, although might as well spend a hundred bucks on a upgraded pump.

With a intake, downpipe, and catback, the Rx-7 will run low 13's easily. No fuel or ecu upgrades needed at that point.
