Which turbo?

Which single turbo in your experience is the best for street use but also good for upping the boost and taking it to the track. thanks.

Well you asked about turbos, but you don't have an RX7; thus, I pointed you towards a site that would better suit your needs. If you are asking about an RX7's turbo setups, drive a well put together seq-twin turbo before asking about singles. It'll probably be too much for you the first 50+ times you drive it.

I just thought you guys would assume i was talking about an FD(which i was) since i was posting my question in the 3rd Gen Specific forum. Maybe i made the wrong assumption.

Jesus.. he was just asking a simple question. It's replies like this that turned me away from asking questions in this forum, when I was a new member. If you have nothing constructive to add, don't reply.

Well maybe he's doing research on the FD before he buys one.. Ever think of that?

So because he doesnt own an FD yet, his questions should be flamed or ignored? Owning an FD magically makes his questions more valid? While that kinda makes sense, it doesnt make the community here look all that good. It kind of reminds me of the stories I hear about Honda message boards. There would be a lot less n00bs here if people would just spend the extra 20 seconds answering a question instead of thinking up some jackass remark instead. Most of you probably dont even know that 90% of the old archive threads dont work anymore due to the servers with linked pictures/writeups are no longer active, but oh well. You all win at putting up a good example for possible new members of the RX-7 club. Good game.

https://www.rx7club.com/search.php <---Thats what this is for then. There is almost nothing that hasn't already been covered here before.

EDIT: Sorry didn't realize the archives were down/gone.

Compared to a GDA WRX, the FD3S is perfect straight out of the box. The power and suspension are nearly flawless, as well as ergonomics and aerodynamics.

There is a link in the FAQ entitled "reliability mods / $1000 to spend," perform all of those and you'll be golden. And buy some new tires, also.


Now quit posting stupid questions! I posted a link to the FAQ in response to the first post you ever made, you should have read it and you would've known the answer already!

You do realize that topics like this show up on a weekly basis right? It takes 2 seconds to type in rx7 in google.com
