Sorry guys I didn’t mean to get your juices going. I, as an employee of the Department of Homeland Security, will always do my best to not let another 9/11 tragedy happen again. We don’t make the laws we just enforce them. Same as I did while serving this great country for over 20 years while in the US Army. Feel free to contact your Congressmen and voice your concerns and grievances. Also, take a look at the news video link and wonder if we could it done a better job then. No security system is perfect and I’m sure the powers above will be glad to hear suggestions for a better mousetrap. It just happened that I was less than a half a mile from the Pentagon on 9/11 and was one of the many soldiers helping right after a bunch of radical individuals decided to take the lives of many other innocent people mostly because of hate towards this great nation.

Woops, somehow I got carried away. I don't believe that I will ever make that trip but who knows. Everyone makes a trip to Vegas at least once. If you happen to come here we will make a show of it.

My car hit the 90k mark sometime in the last week. The last 15k have been with our kit. During my last data log I hit 310g/s @7800rpm. Not bad eh?

BTW, I haven't installed my w/m kit yet. That will be sometime next week or so.

I think it is a few more than that who are active members on this forum and another handful who are not. Last I heard, there were 34-35 kits in use.

I believe your correct but I think I have all the active member/owners on the first post. I know personally know of 5 others that have the kit but will not answer emails or join the forum. Hay Rotr8, send me your information and I'll get you on the list when you get it installed.

Since they don't wish to respond I am reluctant to do that. But you will be on the list.

Ok, good news, we at Pettit have been working on ways to cool the RX-8 down in 90 plus ambiant temps. Well, with the help of Denny a while back we figured out how to cool these puppys way down. Were still working on some presentation and an easy way to do some ducting. Heres a few pics of what weve come up with.

Yes, its the same cores as the heat exchangers. We figured if Cam uses 2 to cool down his 400cc rotory kart and acualy keeps those temps lower then the factory raidiator for that kart engine it should do the job and it did.
