I need more top-end performance!?!?!?!
Alright, well today i was out with a few buddies of mine who all have twin turbo RX7's, and they are pretty heavily modified, I know they are good for high-mid 12's. We did a few runs on the highway, starting around a 40mph roll......I would gain a little on them, but around 100 they would start to pull pretty strong in front of me.
So what can I do to open up the top-end? I have the FLP header system on order and I plan to do a H/C package soon too....will that be enough?

If the Rx-7 runs mid 12's, a heads/cam setup will win you the race. But a properly built Turbo car will still take your heads/cam C5 top-end. I've driven a few BPU Turbo Supras, and those things haul butt top-end. If you really wanna win, go Forced Induction or spray on top of your heads/cam. Good luck!

Your head/cam should do the trick. Also, another option for awesome top end would be to look into the ATI supercharger. Centrifigual(sp?) blowers are great on the top end.
