Going single turbo :D need a little help
 
hello everyone. I have owned my 94 rx7 for about 2 years. Long story short one of my turbos blew and now its a perfect time to go single turbo. Im getting a great deal from a freind of mine on a 52MM with headers/wastegate.. all thats needed to go single basically. My brother and I will be doing all the work.

I'm not trying to get high HP numbers.. just a replacment similar to the twin turbos.. only single :) so running around the same PSI if not less.. since more CFM.

basically i just wanted to know what must be done to the vacuum hoses that goes to the solenoids to the turbos... or any other solenoids... Would this be a good time to get rid of the Smog pump? I would appreciate anyone that can just do a quick write up of all the vacuum hose directions or maybe if i can call somone. I really want to finish my RX7 before school starts.

Any info would be appreciated! :D
Yes i searched i havnt found much info on the vacuum lines.

It's a hell of a lot of work to do it right, I just finished the conversion myself. You can remove the entire rat's nest---solenoids, check valves, vacuum hoses, everything. If you want the kit to fit, most likely you'll have to ditch the air pump. Is your header/manifold specific to the FD?

Also.. are most of the solenoids the same?such as the one that goes to to Fuel preasure regulator.. and the ones lined up in the vacuum diagram in the link? (a, B ,C, D,E g)?
