Ok, I was able to snap a few pics of the car yesterday while the weather was nice (but cold). Not many changes to the exterior other than Rotary Extreme plateless 99 spec polyurethane bumper cover and the 18x8/18x9 ASA wheels.

Engine mods
I made many changes with the look and performance of the engine. I will try to go in depth with the modifications made.

I decided to go with a smaller battery (51R) to allow more room for the intercooler. I made a custom tray that mounts in the same location as the stock piece. After looking at the tie-down brace installed, I decided I will make another one to match the strut brace.

While keeping the CAI I had, I wanted to have the filters permanently match the color of the blue used for the brake calipers, strut brace, and other accents. I used RIT navy blue dye to get them as close to the color as I possibly could.

Along with the fuel pump upgrade, I had to upgrade the rest of the fuel system as well. I installed the fuel pressure regulator on the front of the UIM where the stock boost control solenoids were mounted. I had to fabricate a bracket to mount the FPR to one side in order to install the fuel pressure sensor. I also upgraded my fuel injectors to provide adequate fuel for my power level goal. Thanks to David Garfinkle, I was able to mount stock 850cc in the primary rail and 1200cc in the secondary. To get everything flowing smoothly, I opted for -6an fittings and braided stainless hose connected to the hard pipes at the fire wall.

I also used Dale Clark's method for rewiring the fuel pump but I added my personal touch to it. After reading Dale's write-up and after examining everything, I decided to use one of the empty fuse holders in the stock fuse block to mount the fuel pump fuse. I used fuse terminals from a junk car (Mazda MX6) which is the exact match to that of the 7 and soldered it to the existing wire (see Dale's write-up for detailed directions). I pushed the fuse terminals into the fuse block and inserted the 20A fuse. I still need to label the cover for the new fuse.

I ported the wastegate on my 99 spec twins using a dremel tool. It was easier than I thought it would be. Not sure the exact size I ported it, but I left about 1/16" for the wastegate door to close on. Since the R1 didn't come with cruise control, I mounted the HKS Twin Power on an old cruise control module bracket I got from a forum member (can't remember who it was).
