My 1990 rotary miata turbo(s4 fc 13b)

I know it's not an rx7 (I sold my 2 rx7s recently) but it's still rotary ☺All mods done by myself so excuse the imperfections haha.
My Drawthru build.
S4 13b
44phh mikuni
12a front cover, gslse 13b pan
12a dizzy with 2gcdfis


Hybrid turbonetics turbo (carb tuning in progress)
Please share your drawthru turbo builds. I would like to see em! Thanks for looking. It's still a work in progress.

I like it. Do you have any dyno results?

Also, and forgive my ignorance because I've never worked with a turbo before, but is that pipe that goes up through the hood at the back of the bay a straight-pipe? Ie. No exhaust?

it's a straightpipe, and i'd probably be pissed if he drove that thing within half a mile of me with how obnoxious it would sound.

I haven't tried it on a dyno yet but the power kinda feels like probably low 200s range. Not bad for 6psi. And the pipe exiting the hood is my down pipe. Straight up loud af but I love seeing the flames 👌

Is that a knightsports rf320 you have on there? I have that same turbo, making ~300whp on it.

It's a turbonetics hybrid using the s5 stock hot side. Heard it's good up to 370+hp
