This is what kind of wing i want not too high and not aluminum but i also want this. I guess what im try to say is do i want a wing now that will attract cops and racers alike or do i want a CAI that will attract racers when they hear me zoom by? Im getting both eventually but i just wanna know which kind should i get?

just saw ur rx-7 87 turbo II, really nice and clean, esp for the age of it. i know how tough it is to try and keep an old car looking as new as possible...that swap should be real sweet.

Tracker, AEM and Injen are pretty much the same product, just different name(person who owns injen used to work with aem...). problem with CAI is the possibility of hydrolocking, for me it just isnt worth the risk but aslong as u stay out of large puddles u shouldnt have much of a problem..a way to avoid hydrolocking is a bypass valve, BUT that kind elminates the point of a CAI cuz it robs some power in which case u might just be better off getting a SRI. i dunno if this is true for mazdas but atleast for civics SRI's are louder than CAI's, anyone know if its the same for mazdas?

Injen just came out with a new type of CAI that has a shield sroung the cone to reduce the chance of hyrolock, oh and i live partically next the Ripken Stadium, i was there last Saturday and they were doing an Auto X there in the parking lot i saw a red S2000 with a roll cage he almost spun out, and also a few of the people that i street race with in Baltimore go there and Auto X, some guy in a Turboed Lancer kicked ***.

yeah it was grest (not to rub it in) saw a crap load of runs that day but couldn't stay long had a party to prepare, odd thing though i only showed up to watch, and not 5min later i get a crowd of people asking me if im gonna do it, and i asked them what makes em think that im gonna go and somebody said cuz i have a exhaust system, i just find it weird that no matter where i go i get the same question ever since i get the exhaust.

yaa my friend told me about it, dunno tho i think its like a 2 hour drive for me...

im kinda surprised that someone would say that to u Tracker...autox isnt about power mods or exhausts or w/e, its based on suspension/tires, and more importantly, driver skill. its like 90% driver skillz and 10% car...

I agree with you civicxracer.

Drag racing is for fast cars. AUTOCROSSING IS FOR FAST DRIVERS.
