Had a great day today. I spent a little more time this morning tweaking on the throttle body and managed to get it to where it idles much better. Actually, it's really smooth at about 800 rpm. The new ignition harness and ditching those P.O.S. B10EGV plugs for some stock BUR9EQ's did the trick on my ignition problems. Also, it appears that the smoking has stopped after putting the PCV valve back in as Jason at the RX7 Store recommended. Washed it, waxed it, and put about 30 miles or so on it. I think that tomorrow I'll attempt to venture a little further from the house.

I should be home from work this weekend so hopefully I can put a decent amount of miles on the car to get past the break in period and start tuning for boost. If there is anyone in the Denver area who has a lot of experience tuning, and will work for beer and BBQ, shoot me a PM. (Must be 21 of course for the beer part 
)
Maybe I'll even get the Go Pro Hero II camera out that I bought my son (myself) for his birthday 
and get some video for an update.

I made some bezels for the warning lights part of the dash this morning because the holes were just too deep to get the fabric to stretch all the way in to the back of the hole and get it to stay. I figured this was my best alternative.
I also took a drive up to Fort Collins this afternoon and finished getting all of my break-in miles out of the way. However, on the way back, I noticed that my fuel pumps were getting a lot noisier than they usually are. I guess I'll pull them back out of the tank AGAIN to see if I can find out what's going on and then start tuning for boost.
Wow nice build with plenty of pics!
