I need part recommendations.
I want to obtain roughly 350 HP (at 12-15 PSI) to the wheels of my T II RX-7 '89.
I am currently running 209ish HP at the wheels from a custom port job. Money isn't a problem, I want top of the line stuff. Digital, reprogramable ECU, all the electronics needed/recommeded as well as any turbo upgrades (I want to run 15-25 PSI adjustable digitally if possible).
Sway Bars, Struts, Springs, Suspention, exhaust, flywheel (if necesary), air intake, rad/intercooler upgrade (recommeneded front mount?), Boost controllers, fuel controllers, etc.
I want to know what would be ideal for my car to achieve such a goal. I have parts lists right now, but I want to know the real loe down before I start bolting stuff on and drilling holes in my frame =)

Hmmm, and aren't you patient! Aren't there other things to do with the car before you start slapping on components? Last time I saw your car it needed some "Cosmetic" work, or maybe Matt fixed everything I don't know...

NO carbon seals for turbo!! you'll blow them the first time you boost. they are for non turbo only.
you want full To4 turbo, to4 manifold, external wastegate.
bigger fuel pump. 4 720cc injectors or bigger. haltech ek6, adj. fuel pressure regulater. ported engine. 2mm seals are fine for that power. 3mm just lets you make a mistake or two. big intercooler. I'd go custom, the greddy and hks premade ones are too small for this.

For $5k, I'd rather buy a Jerico or a G-Force and run an adapter plate to the 13B/20B.  Add shipping to the whole deal, and it's a significant price to pay in the U.S.

I guess I'll wait and see, cause I don't have the money right now.
If it works, I'll be calling for at least 3 sets, cause I've got 3 of them in the works right now.  Thanx for the info!
