Someone told me that using the BNRs, would cause you to have to remove the air pump. Wouldn't that cause you not to pass smog? I want more power, but passing smog comes first in my book. Please shed some light, because i've been wondering this for awhile.

I made 440 RWHP on my 1st gen with an REW swap. I put some dingy looking rotor housings in it! I feel like I got away with something. From looking at it from the outside, it is detailed out and spotless. lol
If you want quality, you will pay for it. If you just want to get the car running and need a quick fix, then do it cheap. But there is always a chance for "low compression" or carbon lock or premature failure b/c of used parts or excessive wear.

I was told this by Steve Kan. i bought the 99 twins because i thought they would put out more power than the stock twins, but they don't. I asked him if the BNRs were the way to go and he told me they will put out the HP i want but i would have to remove the air pump. Which for me is not an option.

I sell lots of 3's in california which are strengent on visual and emmission inspections. The 3's are 1/2" longer than OEM (1/4" on each side). That 1/4 inch shouldn't be so much that you have to eliminate the air pump. At the very worst case, maybe ordering a 1/2" shorter belt and then retension the belt for more space which I have yet to hear.

It's nice to be able to get a shot back in at the forum **** talkers every now and then, especially when I have unquestionable evidence to back it up.
As I've already told you, I could care less about engaging in 'sweet talk", "hand holding", or "politics", and I've never found it necessary anyway. We're not negotiating foreign trade agreements here, we're talking about old rotary engines. Those too sensitive for my posts need to return their computer to walmart because they have no business on the internet. There are lots of worse things out there than to be told the truth by someone like me who is actually helping people out.

Did you not have any problems with the solenoids at change-over or gear changes? Iv had mahoosive problems with my stock solenoids letting go at 17psi, they just dont want to work.
I tried 2 different sets but now im waiting for a uprated solenoid pack so hopefully with that sorted il be ready for the dyno. Considering im the only one in the country using these turbos nobody knows what to expect but at a guess id say its running 350ish rwhp maybe a little more...mods below...what you reckon?

I think im making good power but nowhere near that figure! Thats astonishing! How do you guys cope with the heat aswell. When i go for a blast in my fd it gets sooooooooo f*cking hot compared to my single turbo fd! At that sort of power it must make a crazy amount of heat! What dyno was this on?

As for heat problems, was a pretty cool day when we dyno'ed, would say around 55~60 degrees F. Car has an upgraded radiator (Fluidyne) and Large Stock mount intercooler and we have 3 fans that run during dyno's. Temps stayed around 85c all day, with an occasional clime to 90c if we did fast back to back runs.

The 3's can withstand up to 200K RPM which is around 23-24 psi of boost. But the turbine housings are your restriction. I usually tell people that the turbos tend to start hitting a head wind at around 18 psi. You can run them all day at that boost level and not hurt anything as long as there is adequate oil going to them and all the bov's and pipes are leak free.
The 99's are pretty much just like the S6 turbos. Same turbine design, same compressor. Only minor changes are made. The 99's still use the factory 270 degree thrust design which is bad for high boost applications. I wouldn't trust a 99 or a S6 stock turbo over 15 psi. There are people that go higher, but everything has to be perfect for them to live a long life.
