a turbo timer is not needed for the turbo to work. And a twin turbo setup is not worth the pain it will be to get it working, when you can get a single turbo for more power and less hassle

Have a $7000 in the bank.
Head to your local RX-7 specialty shop.
Get read to hand over said $7,000.

You get what you pay for. I am very leary on buying used turbo's just because you don't know if it really is good or not until you run the car, even if it doesn't have any shaft play or anything, it can be junk. Just spend the money to do it right the first time and you will be done.
