check it out guys, those who are always saying they want to go turbo, heres your chance http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...e=STRK:MEWA:IT

 

I am bidding on it, at least for a little bit.

 

Thats does not come with the turbo!

 

the second pic looks like a turbo to me.

 

I run this setup and it rocks....it was installed in 83 on my fb 81.....not sure I'm keeping the holley, but my setup came with the holley and the complete exhuast and sold for just under $2k back in 1983!

 

what do you do for exhaust

 

1 1/2"-3" all the way back to a flow through muffler.

 

All of his negatives are for not shipping expensive items...looks like a good deal so far, would be great with another seller...

 

Something strikes me odd about this auction. He doesn't say a word about the turbo,and the picture is different. It looks like he stole that picture off a website or something and added to auction. Also, I dont know this, but does the kit look complete if turbo was included? For some reason, there are alot of pieces but it doesnt look like its all there.

I also found that his negative feedbacks were from INEXSPENSIVE items, not exspensive items...I checked the last 3 negative feedbacks that he got. 9.99$....interesting...but I dont trust the seller!

 

This is only the "setup"
The turbo is not mentioned so has to be purchased seperate....
You can tell by the price and low reserve.
I also see some parts I can not place with the setup, example: the plenum... looks like things are missing or mis placed or the set is not complete, I wouldn't buy it if you do not have a same set or are familiar with it.

 

I just noticed. I don't see the exh manifold in there also.

 

Gentlemen...

Dont waste your time with this set-up..... is crap!

Do like I did.....

FOR 12A TURBO

Fabricate your own. Believe it or not...Is pretty simple....
To fabricate a Turbo manifold......first, get a 12A exhaust Flange from Racing Beat also get the gasket.
Second.... go to EBAY.COM and get this 13B Turbo Manifold(93-95 RX7): http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...category=33742 ....
Next.... Cut the tip/corners of the 13b flange bolt holes..... place the new 12A flange ON TOP and TIG WELD it..... See this picture:

Finally... get the Turbo and Wastegate.
For the Turbo.... I got a medium size one ( Garrett T4E, .60 compressor, .69 Turbine, P Trim ) I paid about 500 for it.
NOTE: YOU MUST port ( at least ...mild street porting ) your engine.
Total cost (FOR THE TURBO SET-UP) is around $1,000 by doing it yourself.... and over $2,000 if done at a shop.
You will get around 250 horse power at the wheels @ 10 PSI Boost ( with selected Turbo and MILD STREET PORTING)


LIST:
Exhaust Flange
Exhaust Gasket
13B Turbo Manifold
T4 Turbo w bolts, oil line, return line & gaskets
HKS WASTEGATE with gasket
Blow off valve
Intercooler with pipping & silicone hoses
Boost controler ( Turbonetics 10 PSI MAX )
Boost gauge
Heat/exhaust wrap
If carburetor/holley... Turbonetics carburetor cover/hat (blow thru)
If carburetor/holley... use Racing Beat Intake Manifold ( PORTED )
Air Filter ( K&N or Aftermarket )
3 " Downpipe with presilencer & good muffler
a new fuel pump ( should push at least 16 to 25 psi )
and Regulator
Fuel and Air Gauge ( make sure is at least 4 " from turbo on downpipe )
optinal: Turbo timer

GOOD LUCK to anyone trying this...

 

i like your setup, did you have any problems with it when putting it in?

sorry for the hijack

 

Do you need to do anything with the drivetrain?

 

The bidding ended at $610. I truly think this guy misrepresented the product. The buyer got raped. All he's getting is a wastegate, intake manifold and some pipes!!

 

Good thing I got outbid. I hope for the buyer's sake the kit is more complete than it looks.

 

No kidding! I was going to bid on it too.

 

According to the questions asked to the seller, it has everything except for the Holley and the exhaust manifold. However, he is not very clear on the turbo itself.

Even if I was interested and I had the money, I find it very hard to bid on something so poorly put together. Especially for a sale so expensive. He types all in caps, and only includes two flaky pictures. He doesn't include all the specific information someone would want when buying a setup like this.

I find it flakey.
