I see you have a TII. I don't know much about them but Some porting will probably be need. A nice illegal exhaust a good intake. A FCD to not kill your car. Bigger turbo. I will let others handle the details because I know zilch about TII's.

Well, here is at least a partially complete list:

Mid pipe $100
Down Pipe $120
BOV $250
TID (home depot prolly $10)
FCD (dont know the price)
S-AFC ($2-300)

I am not too sure that the stock turbo can support 350 hps, so you will need different turbo, and you should get an FMIC also.

Injectors (720 cc)
and of course, a bigger fuel pump to feed all the fun.

320-350 hp to the wheels is going to be tuff and damn expensive for a fc, my friend Phillip has the baddest 3rd gen on the eastern seaboard, and he dynoed at 339 with i think right at like 17lbs of boost but once he reached that he started to drop off, and belive me when i say this guy knows his **** and his car sure does show it, so gl with your attempt and let me see the dyno sheet when your done

What? Hard? There are TONS of rx7's making well over 400hp on the street without power "falling off" It isn't *that* hard... and in the scheme of things, it isn't that expensive to make 300-350HP. Take what Jarrett said, be sure you have the fuel covered. Pump, larger injectors and an AFC will work. Not ideal but will work. (Ideal would be a stand alone ECU)

An FMIC should be required at this HP level so figure $1000 for the Greddy V-spec.

Then choose a turbo. Many people have been successful with a hybrid. Get the compressor upgraded from BNR or a similiar place and you should make your power. Go to a a full TO4 with a 60-1 custom manifold, water/oil lines and you'll be well on your way to 400HP.

If you plan to go this far I'd highly recomend a stand alone ecu.

But in short: pump, exhaust, intake, injectors, AFC, FMIC and hybrid turbo will get you there.

TID = turbo inlet duct

Plenty of threads about this simple DIY mod. Basically, you buy some cheap pipe to replace the restrictive pipe that's on there stock. If you perform this mod on your current setup, you may need to port your turbo wastegate.

Maybe you should mention if that is on stock twins or not...

...there are A LOT of cars pushing 400 hp in the single turbo section.

I'm not talking ****, and I do know something.

Madrx7racer... I would ignore whatever this guy says, since he OBVIOUSLY has NO idea what he is talking about... check out the single turbo section and you will see MANY, MANY people making much more power than Mr. Electrikhead'd friend.

lol your an idiot the reason, why i dont have some un-godly amount like 1000+ posts, is because, A. I have noticed that over 75% of the users posting on this forum either ask a, stupid questions, b irrelvant nub questions, c stuff i already know, B. just because i do not post does not mean that i do not read all the posts even the silly ones for a laugh, but i do not mean to put people down, nor do i intend to "make enemies" on a forum page which in my oponion is almost extremely silly and a clear sign of immaturity. Now to address evil Rotor, he is running stock turbos, just that they are non-sequential, and of course any guy witha brain could do the math, their are numbers of ways to get 400hp + i.e. Supercharger or the infamous NOS. But those peole are few and far between. i bet not over 5% of the people who post on this forum have ever A. owned a 400hp+ rex or B. driven in a car with 400+ but of course this is an assumption on my part.
The Jist of the story is, people like 87rx7guy make this forum look slightly childish at times, spouting out "look at you mr. 48 posts" you know nothign guy,
and it looks like i need to retract my previous statement because it seems like mostly kids reply to the posts, but i do respect and trust the guys who know their ****, sorry for my ramblings plz dont judge before you know backgroudn info

I agree with you.
It's very easy for people to spit out numbers without realizing the kind of work and $$$ it takes to get there.

340 hp on the twins is very good.

But you should check out the Single section. Lots of crazy set-ups there...$$$ spent = hp

OK, yes it costs $$$'s for HP, but for you to post saying good luck geting those numbers it's hard and since my friend knows everything and made x HP in a 3rd gen you'll be hard pressed to make that power. Then to follow that by saying there are ways to do it with a super charger and NOS? That just doesn't make sense.

If you are truely knowledgeable, you should know that *most* rx7's don't use superchargers (and you should know why) and that NOS is certianly not needed for those HP numbers.

Read this post:
https://www.rx7club.com/forum/showth...threadid=33502

Yes, there are several people that say "I hope" or "Should be making x HP" but there are plenty of others who have actual dyno sheets with mods listed that make tons of power.

Sure people say this and that, but if you would spend a couple of minutes searching you can find plenty of people with the "proof" that you are looking for.
