I have made my mind finally. I believe I am going to make my 1985 RX-7 GS (12A carb) turboed. I have several questions though. What sort of intake manifold would I use? What sort of exhaust manifold would I use? Since I have a full Racing Beat Exhaust System, is there any way I could keep some of it rather than getting rid and making my own exhaust system? Finally, as most of you have probably read, Flawless Motors is comming out with a turbo kit for 1st generation rx-7's. Should I give that kit a try when it comes out? Thanks for your time.

 

Talk to robert about turboing your car www.rotaryshack.com i believe is his site... i haven't heard of that new turbo kit coming out either, are they making one for the SEs?

 

Alright, I have an idea. This primarily has to do with the exhaust manifold. How do I connect the engine to the turbo which then goes out as exhaust? Next, I am guessing the whole exhaust system will be custom, so how do I connect that to the turbo? What is the cost of a tube like that? Could I use the racing beat muffler I have too?

My next question is about the intake manifold. How do I the turbo to the intake system? Do I customly bend the piping for that too? Thanks for your time.
