newbie.....
yea im new to rotaries rx-7's so i was wondering, i did a search but theres so many mixed opinions i was wondering which would b the best turbo to go w/ on a stage2 ported 13b-re w/ 3mm seals..? i am ordering the motor in january when i get my taxes back. i might order it before not sure yet. but i was leaning towards a t70 but i hear the compression maps suck for them, im kinda new to turbo's as well until my friend bought a dsm. hes helpin me out w/ em and all but he doesnt kno exact stats on turbo's. i got a 87 n/a 13b right now. i was also wondering what wastegate to go w/? and if anyone tryed out one of those intercoolers on ebay that r like 275$(they have names like apexi and hks next to the description but they have the same pic and price...)? i mean they r cheap but r they cheap for a reason or a quality product? also if u list these products can u tell me how they will work out hp wise? and what psi? could u list ur setups so i can get an idea of what i can accieve w/ the same setup? im hopin for like 450-500hp and b pretty streetable. lemme kno if u think thats a problem or not. thanx for any help guys its appreciated.

well what is your opinion of best?
spool up? high horsepower? torque?
tell us what your opinion of best is and we will tell you which turbo is suited.

I agree 100% with XSTransAm....
What _I_ would say is best might be a piece of crap to someone else... tell us exactly what you want the car to do and we'll give you some suggestions...
There needs to be a FAQ on this ......

ok basically by best i mean which turbo lasts longer, spools fairly quickly and doesnt need 35psi to hit 500hp. one that pushes colder air. i also wanted to kno if its possible to hit 500hp on a 13b-re motor. and if those intercoolers on ebay that all look the same but have diff names r any good. i dont kno which turbo is best, but to give u an example of what i was talkin about being a best by stats, like kenne bell made a charger for the 03 cobra which gives it 620hp stock w/ jus a diff fuel pump, and runnin same psi as stock charger its 90hp more, now i would say due to the stats that makse it the best charger out there for that car due to the fact noone else makes htat much power w/ one on stock motor. www.kennebell.com i think was the site if u wnna c it.. dunno how much u guys dont like american cars or not. sorry to go off topic.
