weird turboII
well i just picked up my first turbo II after already owning 3 other N/A rx7's and and this turbo II has to have the oil and gas mixed like a 2 stroke.....i mean i have never heard of this...i have had the car for a few days and it runs like a top and the turbo spools awesome sounds like a desiel truck....but i was just wondering if anyones heard of this and why it would be like this....thanks

Most likely what has happened is the previous owner disconnected what is called the "MOP" which means Metered Oil Pump and what this did was put a small amount of engine oil into the combustion chamber to lubricate the engine internals. By disabling the MOP (also called OMP) the engine still needs lubrication so 2 stroke oil is mixed with the fuel. 2 stroke oil is designed to burn cleaner and lubricate better with less carbon buildup than motor oil.

A 2.5 - 3" system will flow just fine. Stock is about 2.25" split into dual 2" or so. |
thats what i told the guy i got the car from..... but he insisted but that he heard it through the great vine....i guess some people need to be slapped......do you know of any paces to get a fc front mount

Greddy makes a kit, but a lot of people use ebay cores and piping to make their own.
Do an advanced search of thread titles for "FMIC" or "front mount" in the 2nd gen technical section. |
