So after looking for around 9 months i pulled the trigger and bought a Montego Blue RX-7 with 66k miles on the motor. No dents paint still looking really amazing for its age. After about 2 months of having the car i called Ihor from IRP and after discussing what my power goals would be I purchased a IRP Borg warner S360 with dual external wastegate setup.

In Febrauary i made a trip over to New Jersey to check out the shop and drop off my car. I decided to have IRP rebuild the motor and stage 4 race port it with RX Parts 2mm apex seals they used a Banzai Racing aluminum pulley kit with Pinapple racing idler pully and IRP motor mounts. For fuel went with Walbro 450, FFE rails, Bosch EV14 1000/2000cc injectors and Relocated the Braille 21lb battery to a the passneger bin and installed a HKS Twin Power ignition system. IRP Installed a Apexi boost control kit and 3 bar map sensor setting the boost to 12 PSI. They also pulled the stock intercooler setup out and installed the Greddy V Mount intercooler while modifing everything to keep my A/C and a Greddy polished elbow with the AEM V2W/M Injection Kit. My alternator was loooking rough so decided to get the IRP upgraded 140amp alterntor and IRP Water Pump. They removed my A- Pillar and went with a prosport Triple guage Pod with 52MM innovation MTX-3852 Oil Temp/ Pressure, Digital Wideband AFR, MTX-3851 Boost guage. My clutch was slipping when i got the car so i decided to go with the ACT ZX6-XTSS street grip clutch and the ACT Lightned flywheel and a Sakebomb Clutch cable. As for now the car came with a PFC but i plan on swapping it out for a Adaptronic setup so i can run E85 next year.

I want to thank Ihor and his team they really did a excellant job with the car and i couldnt be more happier, they answered all my question and during my build were always gave me updates on how things were going! The motor is breaking in right now and upon completion Ihor is going to set the boost to 20 PSI and I Hope to get it on the dyno soon to see what numbers it produces.

I will upload some more pictures of everything else and im sure there might be a thing or 2 that ill have to add to this thread.

Thanks for the feedback. Glad you are enjoying the car. Can't wait to see what it puts down.

 

Nice thxs for sharing.

Ihor is always helpful.

 

Thanks Johnny.

 

 

 

Mmmm squeaky clean rotors. Engine setup is looking good so far! If I lived on the east coast, IRP would be my my choice too.

 

IRP gets cars and engines from all over the country...... the furthest one of our engines has gone is Milan Italy

 

GoodFella i like those rims and tieres what size and brand!

 

He's a Fikse *****, you can ask anybody. Off the top of my head his sizes are 18x9.5 up front +45 and 18x10.5 +42. Or something like that lol

 

This is incorrect, well partially correct

Fikse *****, Yes. Those sizes and offsets, No. They're far too tame



Btw for anyone reading, I received better 2016 pricing from Fikse so if you'd like a quote on some baller wheels shoot me a PM

 

Just got my IRP Stainless Oil Neck. more big things to come this summer!

 

Looks good put some installed pics up when you can.

 

Nice build, where does IRP get the CYM clutch? That's sweet!

 

Finally got to Dyno the car it made 531 at 22 psi.

 

Its refreshing to read about such high satisfaction and complete communication throughout the build process from a builder. Makes impressive numbers as well.

I am curious about the colouring of the parts on the front stack (counterweight, oil driven gear, oil pump). Is it funky flash photography, or is the blotching the result of a chemical cleaning process?

 

Saw the car on the dyno at irp.. what a great setup.

 

ACT

 

All engine parts are chemically cleaned. The darker spots you are seeing are from assembly lube that dripped while oiling the oil pump and chain.

 

After maxing out the 360 makes me want to step up to a 362.

 

Because 530 rwhp is not enough

 

Its never enough s362sxe and a midpipe would get even better numbers.

 

Great number Any lower boost number like 15psi and 18psi?

Interested to see some number from a S362SXE setup as well.
