And found this....

Nice looking second gen turbo. However, the engine shot has me scratching my head. Maybe the air filter was removed for clairity

he is pretty confident...."This car was put together by a mechanic, not by a chop shop. It is mechanically sound, with no typical RX7 issues. "

 

Of all the stuff he has done to the car hard to imagine he for got the air filter....maybe theres a filter in the TID....other wise this dude is out there....it dosn't mention any airfilter either in the mods........

 

maybe he just was workin on the car. Or took out the friggin air box so you could get a better view....or on the other hand, just wanted us to have a better view!

 

open up any japanese magazine and 50% of the turbos have no air filter...sometimes just fine mesh wire over the turbo opening.

i'd be really skeptical about stuff other than air making its way in there...but oh well...guess its just more air flow

looks like a nice car though!

 

looks good to me, and well done too, I am sure a filter is kicking around somewhere
