turbo, but what size. i want something med. not to big. suggestions.
exhaust manifold. does the stock one for the turbo cars work.
wastegate
bov
looking to run no more that 10lbs. for the turboed people. what is safe for high compression on these rotaries. how many miles have u went and how many lbs. i have 2 mm apex seals.
can i use a stock turbo ecu for the boost. or what. can i get chipped.

The exhaust manifold for a turbo FC will not work on your car. Turbo cars are 4 port, na cars are 6 port. If you use the search feature on this forum, you will find that this topic has been covered many times, and you will be able to find all the information you need.
In my opinion, trying to turbocharge a six port car is a waste of time and money. You would be better off getting a turbo motor/car, or leaving the car na. There are many ways to improve the car that don't involve boost. But thats just my $0.02
Best of luck!

The exhaust manifold will fit just fine, housings dont have a "#" of ports, irons do. Intake manifold- turbo one can be used but you will have to modify the lim - engine block flange OR build a spacer for the stock TII manifold and it should allow clearance for the na intake manifolds, but with a TII manifold setup you have the benefit of running a intercooler. Swap front covers for drain, tap the oil pedistal for feed and T off a coolant line for feed. Fuel, stock TII injectors atleast, safc and a wideband dyno wouldnt hurt, and that should be it. Boost levels, not sure.
