Welcome my friend!

Well here is the thing, a Turbo GLX will be a VERY delicate engine, which means you can not go crazy on the boost, etc. People mention a supercharger, well......at this moment there is not suvh thing as a bolt on supercharger for the Rx-7, which means same headache (or more) as a turbo.

With the stock ECU and all possible bolt-ons, you may brake into the high 14's (maybe and just maybe.....................including slicks) you will see a mid 14's. Then again there is always NITRO!!

IMHO, if you want to stay NA, daily driven, and do 13's, there is ONE word (actually two or three) that comes to mind......................... H A L L T E C H

Now must people will argue that the RX-7 is more of a twisties car, and I agree, but doing 13's at the same time should be a nice feeling!

Good luck on your journey & happy rotoring!

I doubt a Haltech will do much for a N/A 13B.
