also, if you own this car. prepared to invest at LEAST $1000 into it every month with the sounds of what you are doing to it. i also hope you are good with maintainance, change the oil all the time with the right kinds of oil and take care of it.

My advice?

You're in way over your head......bring the car to a rotary shop before you break something expensive. Seriously.

+1, You are WAY WAY WAYYYY in over your head. Goodfella, Mahjik, and everyone else in this thread are trying to be very nice and understanding with you. How did you even buy a modified RX-7 without knowing what you're getting yourself in to?!? I hope you didn't slap that single on yourself. That's even worse than buying the car this way.


You will most DEFINITELY need an upgraded computer and some fuel. I don't know what else you have done to support the turbo, but you should at the very least have the proper cooling and reliability mods done. You're by no means done at this point so if money is an issue, I would highly suggest re-thinking your plans of running this single-turbo.
