please use the search at the top of the forum. You will find any info that you need.
If you want to go bone stock to single turbo its going take a lot of money and time.
You can get a good 340-380 whp on the stock twins with all the other upgrades, which is more then enough for most people.
Otherwise you are looking at spending a good $10,000 + if you really feel that you must go single now, you may want to check out the RX-7 store group package that will save you some money.

Don't forget to upgrade things like your AST and radiator.
Also check out the newbie section in the 3rd Gen forum.

Good luck.

You can search for threads and webpages on the net which will list a good order to upgrade parts on your 3rd gen. It seems the magic number 3 is always and ECU upgrade. (ie: exhaust, then intake, then ecu)
