flipped fd=crazy deal
hey guys i need some help again... so heres the deal i just got a sweet setup but i need some help with what to do with it. a buddy of mine flipped his fd a while ago and its been sitting so i finally offered him some money for the goods he got. i got the greddy t78, greddy tubular manifold, greddy wastegate, 3in downpipe, and all the lines and other odds and ends all for $250.00. i own a fc vert t2 streetported and i was thinking about putting this in for now. my questions are other than spacing the manifold and modifying the downpipe and intercooler piping should this be an ok setup for now. what rpm spool should i expect? what kind of money would the setup sell for?

That turbo will be a lag monster on your engine. It won't make power before 4000 RPM.
You'll need a full fuel system upgrade, EMS, intercooler, etc. etc. Figure an additional $5000 to get the turbo running properly on your car.

you dont beleive i got it for that price? i asked for help with mounting these things in an fc not your opinionson what you think is bs or not. the deal is the guy flipped the car over a year ago and its been sitting since. where i live there is very few rx7 enthusiasts around our area. i happened to meet him with my car, he said he had flipped an fd a year ago and i asked what goods hes got. i was the first and only offer and he sold them to me. if youd like pics i can post them.

Post count is over rated
i dunno if the manifold will fit your motor i have an fd motor in my fc and when i tried to use the greddy log from an fc ,it didnt even want to go down on the studs. the t78 on a fd motor with a stock port isn't bad because the t78 is similar in size to a t66 if you measure wheel size in mm. on a ported t2 motor it will be fine. fun turbo . drop some 1200 or 1600cc's in the secondaries tune that bitch and enjoy your great deal.

its a greddy tubular manifold, i think it could be like considered a long runner manifold. on the fd it put the hot section in front of the intake manifold, the only thing that was a problem on the fd was the downpipe and he heated it and bent it in enough to clear the manifold.
