n/a turbo?

my main questions are as follows:

has anyone done this conversion?

does anyone know anyone who has?

how well does it work?

what was involved in your conversion?

Nope. NA to turbo conversions have never been done. Ever. In the entire 20 year history of the 2nd gen RX-7 no one has every turbocharged the non turbo car. Not even once. I mean, it's not even covered in the FAQ, or the archives, or countless posts on this forum available via the search. Nope, not at all...

Closing thread now.
