Just thought I'd let you guys know we have a story on a bloody quick rx7 here

I love this car!

 

 

There's excellent proof that 2mm can be used effectively in a high power engine. He runs 28 psi on them

440 rwhp w/o nitrious... he still has room to extract MUCH more power if he wants!

 

Oh, and has anyone ever heard of that turbo he's running now? TA45
I've never heard of it..

 

99% of the guys in Melbourne here use 2mm seals, they can't see why you would go against Mazda's engineering decisions?? And they prove to make big power.

440kw, NOT hp.......this engine has seen as high as 520kw in tuning with nitrous.

The TA type turbo is quite popular, basically a truck turbo, many have found that once boost goes past 30psi the thrust develops problems.

 

Cools. 440kw...in that case - impressive!!
Do you know who makes that turbo, and any webpages I can research more information about it?

Thanks

 

Its a Garrett made turbo. Very popular down here.

I don't think there are any webpages available. What do you need to know?

 

Anything you can tell me
Available turbine and compressor trims, comman HP figures for comman sets ups (ie: street ported 13B single turbo @ 18 psi), umm, got a flow map for it?, how much do they sell for usually?
Thanks !
