Did u use a pre fuel pump fuel filter? If so, which one? Thanks.

We are currently working on what to do for fuel .....

I got 2 new Walboro L416 fuel pump for E85... I need toget this 2 pump in the fuel tank and make it work :)....

For the moment be running the stock turbo , but going big single (6466) soon...

Pic coming soon....

i know there are quite a few T2-enhanced Gen I cars out there, but your plans still intrigue me. every so often someone throws a fresh idea into this tried and trued combination. i await your take on it. good luck with it.
i'm quite interested in seeing how you accomplish this. out of sheer curiosity, is there a reason that you're not going with a surge tank system?

Updates:
Intercooler and Microtech EMS LT10c on their way to Miami.... :)

Only thing left to order is the 2000cc injectors........

Also like to thanks Eric from Rotary Werks to taking up this challenge with me..

Don't have much experience with surge tank, coming from a Supra world I always like the inntank fuel pump better than innlines for the street.. This new walboro L416 pump rocks for E85...

Little up date:

Got a use UIM, LIM and TB for a FD in a great price from aicrotary2 today .. Great person to deal with....

Hate the looks of the Turbo II UIM.....

Sorry it took me so long to get this project going but I had some stuff to take care before I started anything....

The car is all ready with Erick at Rotery Werks for the swap... We had some bad luck with the compression in the rear rotor of the TII engine :(..... New plans we decided to built the engine with some after market apex seals and some port magic by Erick and put a big single in the mix.


I pick up today a new Borg Warner S366 with .91 back housing for a killer price to pair up with the built engine.... When I got home today the ACT clutch that I order from RX7store was waiting for me at my door :)...

Hopephelly the engine parts arrive tomorrow to start putting the engine back together.

I will post some pic tomorrow, for real this time...

More updates to come...

Here are the pics...

The street ports and work done on the engine looks great... Rotory werks did a great Job on it...
Tomorrow get the engine out of the car in with the new....
Next step is Fuel system and intercooler on the car...
Let see what we come up with specially on the fuel system setup...

More pic of a few things that came today on the mail....

Still waiting on the exhaust manifold :(

Looking good keep posting

Here is the Engine before it went out today....

sorry no good posting pic from my new mac..

Lots of sweet parts :)

Updates...
Motor is out and gas tank...... Few pics of the work.
Still waiting on some fittings..

Problem uploading pics... Tomorrow from work I will post them.. iPad is killing me..

Engine bay will be clean and strip of all things not used...

Brain storming last night on the intercooler setup and leaving the air conditioning on the car..

The gas tank is out and will do a similar inn tank pump setup like they do in the Miatas with a specially made pump hanger.. One L485 pump for now but leaving room for 2 just incase I need more pump.. According to my calculations. I should be good with this pump for 550WHP on E85 with 4 2000 cc in jectors... I hope I am not wrong.. I preferred to have one pump setup if possible.


I was very surprise about the quality of the Ebay exhaust manifold.. For $118 it looks and feel great..
They even clean it up in the inside and the WG tube is big and well place..

Here are more pics:

I am using the pre pump filter that comes with the L485 install kit..

Sorry for the late response...

Update :)...

I finally got some new pic of the car... I will let the pictures do the talking..

The car is running at 12 psi at low boost.. more to come....

Some more...

We are doing a ford Taurus e-fan upgrade and taking the oem fanclucth off the car ..
for the big E-fan we need it more juice .. Alt 130amp upgrade also..
I also upgrade the new alt pulley with a racing beat one.. Not in pics...

Erick fuel tank mod.. to fit dual walboro E85 pumps...
we also use a old turbo II fuel hanger .....
3.5 inch turbo back custom exhaust by Rotory werks... Sound great video clip to come...

Taurus E-fan install

Nice!

How is S366 response feel??

Congrats man, Looks great!

Thank you Sir...

I feel bad I can't do a proper write up of this project but I don't have the time with work...
Eric from Rotary werk has done a great Job and has put his heart on this car also to make sure everything is to par..

It feel's great and it is a great turbo for the street...

I have the .91 back housing I am thinking to change to the 1.10 before tuning....
The turbo lag is not that bad in my opinion.....

Alt install with Racing Beat altpully...

13.5 volt across the boar with the big Taurus E-fan....

Awesome!

Thanks for the info on the S366.

Some videos would be cool to see. :D

Enjoy the car.

Update:
Erick decided to change the thermostat on the stock radiator and the temp when down from 88c in heavy traffic with AC on, to 82C flat all day long... :)

For me was very important to have A/C in the car here in Miami Florida, and able to drive the car in heavy traffic without hiccups...

We have manage to solve the temp issue and keep a steady Amp ( volts) supply after the E-fan install by upgrading some parts..
Soon I will have her home...

estevan62274 videos are coming soon...

Good new after 5 month..... SHE HOME.....

I got the FB yesterday afternoon from Erick at Rotary Werks.. Car feel's great and drive good... Need little tweaking on the tune for street driving but nothing major..

Still breaking in the clutch, no boost only a few psi :)..

The response on the BW S366 turbo is great in 4 gear a see positive boost on the street at 2200 rpm I can even hear the tial blow off valve discharging...

More to come... :)

Love the smell of E85 with Benoil mix ....

The Microtech dash look good and you have all the info you need...

A few pics of the interior goodies..... I also put some picture of the work done to the stock fuel-tank to fit the 2 Walboro 400 E85 pumps..

I need a street tune bad .. the car is burning E85 like crazy...

Hopefully I will get a good street tune on Wednesday.. Only 100 miles on the break inn so far..

Need to fix a few things and change the transmission shiftier bushing..


I need read the instructions of the Eboost II boost controller.. have no idea how to adjust the settings..

New updates.....

Put a new exaust in the car hated the Honda look I had before.. More old school ...
Magnaflow 3.5 in and out.. Love the new sound ...

I also got a air filter the only that fits from auto zone.. not that bad looking...

On to the pics....

Looks great bro!

Are you going to the Charrazco meet? I hope to see your car there.


Steve

Yes I am going to the Churrasco meet if God permits... It sounds like a good time...

Hopefully I get to meet some RX7club members in the event in November...

I'am pretty sure I was right behind you for a few blocks this week. Near Tamiami airport? Stock wheels? It sounded like the your idle was high? Looked good. I'am sure it scoots well though!

Cool, I'll see you there, my first gen still isn't ready so ill have my RX-8, which ain't bad cause I'll have a/c and cruise control for the ride down.

What's up DF, you going to the meet?



.

If you are planning on running more than 26 psi I would suggest you to run a 1.00 or 1.10 back housing ,

Thanks for the compliment...

Yes stock wheels... Sleeper look for now :)....

Eric shop is around Tamiami airport I am usually around there on Wendsday on my day off ... My idle is high (1600 RPM) when my air is on... The car has a idle control valve install wire to the Microtech that we need to adjust and play with it...

Thank you Sir for the reply...

I will get one 1.10 from Mike Turbo before going to the dyno for big boost..... I will also be installing two more 1000cc injectors as my primaries injectors and having 4 2000cc in the secondary rails.

What will be the lag diference between the .91 and the 1.10?


Will you think it will be that notable....

I try searching but no back to back dynos from a .91 to 1.10 in the same car..

When I dyno my car with the .91 the turbo wouldn't make no more power after 28 psi, and on the street after 120 mph car wouldn't keep pulling due to much back pressure and I was running the .91 with 3.5 exhaust.

I think with the 1.10 it should start to spool 400-500 rpm later than with the .91.

This is no good...


I also have the 3.5 exhaust... Were your EGT high do to the high back pressure..

Day off today.. I got some little things done..

Exhaust housing 1.10 order today..
The 1000cc injectors are inn..

Short shifter install also... I love the short shifter...

We change the BOW spring today and program the Turbo smart E-boost on low boost ( 12.0 psi) and the car feel and drive much better and the turbo is much quicker to spool up ...

What brand is the exhaust manifold?

Ebay special for Turbo II... The divided one...

The manifold ports were clean and the WG position on the manifold look good..
So far so good .. 12 PSI of boost at the moment..

Almost forgot Erick ( Rotary Werks) welded some support to help with the heavy BW turbo..
