limits on stock fuel and turbo

at the moment i'm savin up for a tii and hopefully by the time i've got the money i'll want and have bout 5 grand canadian left over for mods so this is there the questions start since i might as well figure everything out ahead of time etc

with the 5 grand i'm most likely gonna go intake, full exhaust, fuel pump, front mount, safc, gauges, boost controller (unless anyone else here has better suggestions)


1) what are the hp limits on the stock fuel system, turbo?

2) at what stage of modding would i need a full stand alone rather then just a piggyback like the safc


thx in advance all i do at work is browse this site lookin for info but those are a couple things i haven't had a chance to look up or come across yet


one of the nice things about canada is our import laws, true jspec tii could be on it's way in the near future if i can't find one locally

here are better questions for you, as soon as you answer these you will be able to answer your own questions.

a) Can you find the search Button, and learn how to use it? (seriously you will find more info under that button and most likely all the answers you are looking for)
b) Can you handle a Turbo RX-7?
You should not shoot for HP right away a Turbo Rx-7 is a VERY FAST car in the first place, so you should get use to it's stock power, then add power adders as you get used to the added power in steps.

don't forget, most likely u wont be buying a pristine conditioned Rexy first

u'll have to spend money on maintence and preventitive stuff first.. who knows the engine might be in need of a minor or major rebuild...

u wont know until actually get one...

Sounds like you've got a ~$9k+ budget? Where abouts do you live? If you look in the Canadian section there's the definition of a pristine nicely modded S5 TII FS by Scott89T2.
