i was just wondering if we could get a list of available turbo kits made for 2nd gens. or where to get some of the main parts like divided exhaust manifolds and turbos and stuff.

 

let's see there is greddy and hks I am sure there are more. Check out the rx7store, mazdatrix, rx7.com and so on.

 

FC specific turbo kits available in the U.S. -
*GReddy TD-06SH kit
*HKS "Sport" turbo upgrade kit

FC specific turbo components availablein the U.S. -
*HKS cast turbo manifold, collected
*HKS cast turbo manifold, divided

Ted: man, your crazy.... but thats so bloody cool

 

thanx for the replies so far but i was hoping for bigger turbos than the ones greddy and hks offer

 

Thats when **** starts getting custom....

 

look up blitz they use the same size turbo for our cars as for the supra and 3rd gen

 

That Blitz kit is specific to the FD3S and does not fit on the FC3S due to the lower intake manifold.

But blitz does make one for the FC

See.......

BLITZ TURBO KITS

Also I think SR Motorsports sells kits too.

 

this is more along the lines of a turbo upgrade rather than turbo kit. these were designed with the T2 in mind, not the n/a cars.

from what i hear

 

i dont know if yall have ben here yet but this is a god one http://www.horsepowerinabox.com/make_select.asp
go look at it i like it. its rpm performance centre site

 

That kit is relatively new.


They make their own.&nbsp It's not a "true" kit.

I can put together my own kit using an HKS turbo exhaust manifold and any off-the-shelf Garrett T04.

This is a quote from these people-------> http://www.horsepowerinabox.com/mall/tc13.asp

series 4 STOCK turbo upgrade.

"This unit is fully re-conditioned and high flowed using a V2 trim TO4 compressor wheel and back cut exhaust wheel, standard S4 exhaust and compressor housing, but enlarged waste gate for better boost control.

Capable of 470 horsepower, bolts straight on, gives less lag than the standard unit yet makes loads more power on the same boost."

This is insane for soooo many reasons......

#1: price $1420 ?!?!?!?!?! For less then $1000 you can get a full blown T04, and they want this for a s4 upgrade?!?!?! *go ahead and bend over,, this is the rip off of the century*

#2: 470 horsepower?!?!? NO ******* WAY!!! *lose that hardon, Its not possible, 300 at fly if your lucky.*

#3: Less lag?? umm highly doubtful, maybe close to stock. You lose turbine efficiency when you "clip" a turbine (a 2% in turbine efficiency loss is equivalent to 25% in weight gain) to gain top end flow. And NO the weight offset (material removed) will not make it spool faster. And yes you get faster boost when going up in compressor exducer,, but I doubt this will offset the turbine clip.

Beware when buying stuff is my point, do your research and ask the large number of experienced and knowledgeable people here before you make a pricey purchase.

My $.02 rant....

 

i htought the same thing about the price so i emailed them and they said that is in australia money. multiple there price by.58 and that is what you pay.

 

As RacerXtreme7 mentioned, it's in AUS $'s.


I totally agree.&nbsp I dunno where they get their dyno numbers from, and most Aussie complain the DynoJet runs too high numbers!
