Hi everybody. I'm fairly new at this. My 1993 RX7 has smoke coming out from where the turbos are. It's not a lot of smoke but smoke is visible. I've been told that this is usually a sign of tired turbos. I'm wondering if it's better to rebuild the stock ones or go another route? Also, can you upgrade the stock turbos in any way? Thanks for any input.

 

Go out to the RX7 Store (www.rx7store.net) and look at the range of turbos from upgrading the stockers to going with a large single. I went with a upgraded (Hybrid) on my second gen that allows me to keep most of my stock components with just upgrading the exhaust and minor fuel system changes. This is a nice update for the second gens that push them into the 300+ HP ranges.

 

what kind of smoke do you see?
when do you see it? (all the time? only after you start the engine?)
what kind of smell does it have?
