so i just got an 87 fc tii...some questions

i got the car today with 75,000 miles on it. the previous owner did supporting mods like
ported wastegate and turbo runners to prevent boost creep,
FCD installed to prevent fuel-cut
New gauge pods installed with boost, a/f mixture, and water temperature
New Greddy 720cc secondary injectors
New ACT clutch, pressure plate, and lightweight flywheel
New Walbro 255 fuel pump, rewired to a reliable circuit to prevent running lean
New shifter bushings


right now the car is running at 7 psi...and to get it up to about 11 psi he suggested an Rtek 2.0 and MBC...i'm brand new to the rx-7 world and i was wondering where i could purchase an rtek 2.0..and waht exactly it is.... im going to be getting a manual boost controller later this week...can u guys recommend a brand? and should i install both the mbc and the rtek 2.0 at the same time?

rtek is more advanced people. i would suggest you take it to get tuned by a profecinal or somthing. rtek is a chip that goes into your stock ECU. if you do a search you will find a link to there web site. its basicly like running stand alone but not. you get the chip and then this enables you to connect a palm pilot to your ecu for tunning

you'd have to order it. when you order, you send your ECU in and they modify it themselves....you then get it back and install the ECU.
