Disabling/Removing Turbo
Hey guys,
Is it possible to disable or remove the turbo from a third generation rx-7 and still have it working?
Thanks in advance.

you should be able to do it. I saw one for sale a a dealership years ago where the turbo was blown, similar i would think to disabling the turbo. The car drove normally without boost, but it was pretty weak.

New driver? Restricted license? 
It could be done, but will require a new exhaust to be fabricated, new intake arrangement, etc. It would be a lot of work and the result would be a very slow car.

there would be no point to that ,and would be a great power loss, its like having a acura integra with a gsr swap,taking it out and putting in a single cam non vtec from a civic, not worth it. if you want to save gas dont boost LOL
