Thats the run on sentence I have ever seen in my life. I really have no idea as to what you are asking here. You seem to be jumping in and wanting a ton of streetable HP. Do your research and you will find out its not as easy as you think.

hey Guys, I'm not trying to pick up for anyone, but one of these days, some one is gonna say the same thing about wanting alot of hp and you ll are gonna laugh and WHAM!! in your face is a 800hp rx.
I remember reading on a forum about a guy who wanted 1200 out of his skyline, when most guys were maxing 800+ and they laughed.Well he he became the fastest skyline in austrailia and got his numbers too.
So just chill and direct the man to some good info and leave the negitivity elsewhere, he will see whats ahead and decide from there.

Wow, I did not think that the flaming was that bad. I have seen way worse for more legitimate questions.

So I guess that I will be the "nice guy" and help him out.

Here is a list of what I would do if you want to keep the REW.

Fully rebuilt and 1/2 bridged motor, new housing good seals etc.
1000cc 1600cc injectors
Two "small" turbo's
8AN fuel line with fittings
aeromotive race pump or a2000
3 row copper core rad
largest IC you can get bar plate design
Rebuilt tranny to accomodate the load
new rear-end ie ford 9"
slicks/drag radials
Standalone FMS
Better ignition
Electronic boost controller
Boost gauge
New aluminum AST or elimination
better brakes
good set of plugs
large WG (ie 60mm)
custom exhaust
SS exhaust manifold
Electric fan
K&N air filter
Downpipe
BOV

I know that I am leaving something out. But I hope this helps. I have heard a few times that rotaries are good up until 500 per rotor. All of this is hersey though.

Hey no problem. There are also small little things that I did not post because once you get into the build they are apparent. Ie silicone hoses, gaskets, IC piping. The list goes on and on.

You could also go with one huge single but the spool would be horrible. I think that he needs to understand that 600-700hp in a rx7 is not the same as 600-700 in a supra.

never understood why people think..."well since I have a big turbo and want big numbers, I must need a BIG wastegate."

a big wastegate will prevent boost creep, yes...but if you are using a turbo in the HIGH PSI range, you won't be venting much exhaust, as you want as much exhaust spooling that mother up to the heavens. Seems like you would want a BIG wastegate if you are using a turbo that pushes a lot of air and you want to control it to a low boost.

I'm no expert, can anybody elaborate???
