ok heres my problem....

im only 17, i have a 94 and a 95 fd. i am selling the 95 and the 94 was my daily driver before i blew the motor(114k miles). i am currently getting a malloy reman and sending it to Jeff at Rotary Power to tear it down and give me 3mm apex seals and a streetport. i have about $5000 left after i get all that dont. my question is if you were in my situtation, which turbo would you get. i know i have to buy:

fuel computer: AEM (is it a good system for FD's)
1300 sec injectors: RC Engineering
fmic: either a greedy or apex'i
boost controller: greddy profec B
bov: i have the HKS SS BOV
wastegate: tail (should come with single turbo kit)
pipes: custom made pipes
manifold: who makes these???? only thing i dont know where to get!
gaskets and other small things: make or buy



my real question is, what single turbo should i get. i want something that can get me over the 450hp mark with little lag as possible. i considered the BNR stage III but you make 420 hp with those at 14-20 psi. i want a good amount of hp at only 6-10psi and 15 at the most for drag.

these are the turbo's i considered:
gt35/40
greddy t-78
t-76 from www.cheapturbo.com
t-88 too much lag
xs engineering kit: they are 30minutes from here
t04s
t04e
t51r
apex'i turbo
and some others::



what would you do!!!!!!

i would like to thank people that reply to this post and i know what i am doing, dont let the age throw you off

 

I would do the Greddy T-78, mostly because their products have always done a great job for me.

you should sell both cars and buy a 85 nissan station wagon like I had to when I was 17

 

i knew some ******* would say something like that, that was why i was waiting and responded so Quickly.


anyway.. how much would a t-78 kit cost me??

 

i found your problem


haha, i'm just kidding, i'm only 19.

i would scrap the boost controller and fuel computer and just get the apex'i power fc. everyone i know that has an FD has a power fc and it's great.

 

nice one... anyway the power fc doesnt come with a boost controller.... correct me if im wrong?

 

it doesn't come with one but there is an attachment that you can buy to control the boost

 

boy

 

so how much will it cost total??? the more mooooney on that, the less on a turbo kit.

 

The Power FC has a built in boost controller, you can adjust your boost settings from the settings menu. However if you go single or even on high power stock twins it is highly recommended to get a standalone boost controller. I highly recommend a Power FC over an AEM as there are few and far between rotary tuners that can tune AEMs. Find out what ECUs the tuner you will be using can tune. XS Engineering is very good at tuning ECUs, I know they can do Power FCs, not sure about Haltech or other ECUs. I would recommend the GT35/40 kit, its far from the 450rwhp mark but it will have a lot less lag, it sounds like your a turbo newbie, so I would stay away from the bigger turbos and have fun playing with your "measly" 400rwhp.

 

I would definetaly keep the 95

what is it montego blue or something?
not that there's anything wrong with that

Who says you can't get 450rwhp with a gt35/40?

 

im not new to these cars but i am new to single turbo's (i'll give you that). in fact i drive my fd for a year before it blew. how many hp can i expect from the gt35-40's and they are ball bering right???

 

here are the pics in my website of the 95: its yellow and you can see my blue one in the back of some pics:::

click on 95 rx7

 

Around 75 rwhp @ 18psi. If you run 37 octane you might be able to squeeze out another 2 hp.

 

First of all. You ruined the car.

Second. It's hideus.

It's a rolling turd.



















































This is just my opinion so no hard feelings.

 

please dont post here anymore, go chase a van or something

 

You asked my opinions child. I gave you mine.

 

i dont need yours. BOY... as i said go chase a van or something.

 

how can u afford two cars? i have to know, my uncles 27 and hes 60k in dept

 

this is like aim or something

You need to post this in the single turbo section they know a lot more. I would go with the gt35/40 after doing a good amount of looking around. You can get around 500 hp if you really push the turbo and full boost at 3400rpms.

Why did you repaint that 95? Was it in an accident? The color and kit makes me

 

Is that how kids rebute these days. Go chase a van?

 

yea i know.

after i bought mine, my dad wanted one. mine looks all sotck on the outside just the way i like it but me dad had to outdo himself. he chose the kit and the said to paint it yellow but i didnt think the moron painting would choose some pale color and not even mold the kit to the car. i have been rasing money for mine which is a 94 R2 and the yellow one was my dads. he took one ride and said "it has potential but i dont have time" he goe himself a 03 cobra and i got 2 cars!! its a good thing i have this one or i wouldnt have a ride

 

no, i meant literally, go and chase something to keep yourself busy because you sure as hell have no life. it seems all you do is sit behind a screen and talk to people over a screen. please stop posting. i have asked you nicely...... dont push it

 

That stock AST looks like it's about to explode any second now......

 

Hey Resource, go chase a van!
