Easiest, Reliable, 275-295 HP?

Easiest, Reliable, 275-295 HP?
I would like to increase the performance of my FC, TII, but at the same time not go crazy, I don't need/want anything 300+. I was wondering what people's suggestions would be on a setup that would have a fast spooling turbo that would still be capable of like 275 horses. Something that will require a good amount of work to be done but nothing insane. What do you guys suggest to get this kind of hp output without dropping astronomical figures of cash down? On a side note I realize fast and cheap is not reliable, cheap and reliable is not fast, and fast and reliable is not cheap. Just maybe examples of other's set-ups or even ideas for an original set-up it doesn't matter. All input is highly welcome, except for mean people that call others ignorant or stupid , (specifically me, for asking such a newbish question).
Thanks again guys.

get a BNR turbo, stage1 should do for what you want, bigger injectors, and some type of fuel control.
about 700 for the BNR
Duno about injectors, Never bought 'em.
about 300 for an S-AFC.
Also might want to think about an FMIC and a better radiator.
There are MANY lost cost alternatives to the greddy and HKS kits out there that will hold up to your HP needs, the Starion IC will probably do nicely
Koyo rads are about 350, fluidyne about 450.
about 700 for the BNR

I would say stage 2 or 3 is your best bet to make that kind of power to the wheels.
If you get the stage 3 from BNR, I would suggest that you have him use the stock turbine and not clip it.
Then you can do an S-AFC2 to control your fuel, But you will be more happy with a stand alone. You gas millage can go up and drivability can also go up as well, less little problems.
You will need probably 880cc secondaries you could probably get away with 760cc injectors but I wouls suggest the larger ones.
You should have a good 255lph Fuel pump, maybe a good fuel pressure regulator. You don't need a FMIC to make that kind of power reliably, but if you do get a FMIC you will make more power more efficiently.

sad thing is, the cheapest, easiest, most reliable way to get that kind of power is by putting a *shudder* 350 ci small block V8 in your car. lol

LOL, ya a chevy 350 LOL! Whatever go with the BNR turbo. As far as cheap and easy go with the 350 I see neither. It is much easier to change injectors and turbo upgrade than put in a 350. And a "DECENT" 350 is gonna cost ya some coin. Last time I checked the fastest RX7 still ran the rotary motor. Check out siguel racing. I would not poison the RX with that crap. LOL a 350. Better Yet if thats what ya want sell your 7 and buy a camaro. Why even bother with the RX7 with out the rotary. Show me a RX7 with a V8 that out does rotary performances RX7, Mazda Trix RX7 or Siguel Racings RX7 and I may start to agree that V8s are the awnswer for the RXs. Last time I checked Siguel Racing ran a high 6 second run. Mazda Trix and Rotary Performance were both running 9s and Mazda Trix is not even using a turbo.

do you want whp or just flywheel hp if is only flywheel hp you can get a Racinbeat full exhuast that would give you 50hp and get bigger injector, a 255lhp pump that would probaly give you something close to what you want

Crap. I forget.
I try to change them every week, so I don;t tend to memorize all of them.
I just came across a bunch of JDM race queens, so let's see how they come out next week.

i my turbo wont even ATTEMPT to hold 14psi all the way to redline. its like 14psi bleeding to 8 by redline... would an electronic boost controller help this at all?
Try to get one with a MAP sensor, so it can run closed-loop.

i also have a 3" downpipe mated to a 2" catback (stock gutted cat and 2" catback) could this be choking my power?

up to 300RWHP
I say get a full EXhaust
Aluminum radiator and Electric fan running evens cooling liquid
airfilter
Boost controller
Fuel computer or standalone
upgraded fuel pump and regulator
Bigger Secondary injectors like 720cc
Ported wastegate
front mount intercooler FMIC
This should get you around 300RWHP at about 14 PSI boost
this is what im going for it these mods don't do it Guess Ima have to street port my motor and go haltech or microtech..
