Probalby not, cause the Rx7 is rotary. Plus the NA rx7 driveline will not support the power that the turbo driveline will support. Plus that probe turbo is probalby a little T3... which may be smaller than even a stock TII turbo. The NA motors are higher compression than you would ideally want for turbo.........
You would need a turbo computer since the NA one can't deal with positive manifold pressure....
If you want a turbo Rx7, buy a TII... unless you have tons of time and access to a turbo car anyway for parts (rear end, half shafts, transmission, etc, etc, etc) you don't want to mess with putting a turbo on the NA motor.

Also, the turbo is WAY too small - heck, Probe owners get stock TurboII turbos as upgrades!
