n00b modding question
 

Alright, I understand the 3 mod rule. I've got the new ECU to compensate for this.

Performance mods I am buying:

-Power FC
-Downpipe/midpipe from RX7store (only $275!)
-catback
-intake

I know I need a new ECU, what else do I need? Would I need a fuel pump? What about a boost controller? I am very concerned about longevity of this motor. Do I need bigger injectors without the FMIC? These mods should put me somewhat north of 300rwhp.


Thanks in advance to everyone for their help

If you are alrady buying all that, you don't need a new ECU. Power FC is the best ecu out there. I don't know what else you need, because I don't know how far you want to go.

scott--you'll find the forum search function to be ever-helpful. You'll find the answers to your questions 10,000 times over.

300 rwhp is a little optimistic. If you are shooting for that much, you should also get some 1300 cc secondaries and maybe a fuel pump.

Scott, you toolbag! Prepare to be owned for starting this thread! Sheeeesh!:p:


Call me and we can discuss your mod plans/needs! PM'd ya my cell!

3 mod rule doesn't apply to mid-pipe.

You will need fuel.

I'm getting the PFC... thats what I meant by 'new ECU'

same thing

invest in dyno tuning after all that shit is installed. i think rx7 store is near you and can help you with that.

Thats sound advice, and I do plan on having them tune it. Tony knows his stuff, as does Mike.

Still curious to see what fuel mods I will need for the full exhaust and intake. Also if I need a boost controller to prevent spikage

The new RX-7store is so close to my house next year..

IF you tink 275 is cheap check out this site http://optionimports.com/ststdosetfor.html

Hey Mike,

I'll call you later tonight. I don't need my taillights done right now anyways, Im not going to be driving the car that much before June anyways. Curious to see what you think of this new DP/MP combo - if it works as well as the HKS DP and the SS DP the rx7store sells. I'll call you tonight on your cell

Do you already have the reliability mods then? I hope you have a boost gauge, water temp gauge, etc. I would also think you might have some boost creep with a midpipe without a ported wastegate. Either way GL with the car.

the boost creep is different car to car, some get it some dont...

with the same mods (i have haltech) im pushing 294 whp at 14psi

:eek: :eek:

go here https://www.rx7club.com/showthread.p...threadid=27094 and read the long posting by JimLab.

I'll be going with 1300s and a supra TT fuel pump.

should be enough to support downpipe, midpipe, catback, intake with powerFC
