We already have this kit available now for the FC. All you need to do is ask.

The only difference I see is ours comes with a 45mm wastgate instead, and our manifold isn't slotted.

How much for that FC kit? My have S4 T2 in my 85. I bet that kit would be a nice addition to my already light car

What does it include....a pic of everything would be even better.

that manifold doesn't look to be a very good design for a high-powered turbo (ESPECIALLY rotary) car.

I'd much rather see the engine side have a split between the two runners (not one solid piece) for expansion.

i currently have this turbo that i'm trying to sell that i had bought for my dsm. but i still have it and if i don't get it sold i was wondering if it would be possible to keep it for an fc but just maybe change out the exhaust housing. anyone wanna give their input? i bought it from www.agpturbo.com under the dual ball bearing section. here's the pics.

www.andrewwarren.com/images/l3r

it's good for 630+ horsepower and this would save me in mod money if i could still use this turbo (if i can't sell it). already want a good amount of horsepower anyway. if it's possible to use, just wondering where i could get an exhaust housing to use on this. thanks for any info.....

try mazdaracing.com they have a nice stage II turbo upgrade which will allow you to use your stock manifold. Its priced at $799 and they always answer there Emails they have other custom Turbo set ups as well that cost more $$ they also have custom made intercoolers and so on. Excellent people to deal with.
