Single Turbo Kit pricing

Hey everyone, looking for a single turbo kit.

Im looking for a kit that includes everything for install.

Thinking something like this.

http://www.rx7store.net/GT4088_Turbo...4088%20kit.htm

or this.

http://www.rx7store.net/T04R_Turbo_K...urbo%20kit.htm

The car is already set up for single turbo as it has a blown one on it now. If you have any reccomendations for a turbo kit please let me know, im looking for regular driving and a few track runs here and there.

Talk to Lance over at Freelance Motorsports (mono4lamar on the forums). I have his VE600 turbo kit but I know he makes S366 turbo kits with dual Tial mvs wastegates. I think they even come ceramic coated?

Aspec's kits are proven over and over again. They guarantee their manifolds as well. Contact Sean (ZeroR) and ask him what you want to know. I'm happy with my 3574R kit.

Does your car already have a kit on it now? The 4088 is not great on the street. Go with something smaller like a 35R, T04S. What type of HP are you looking for and what are your other modifications?

Car already has a blown single turbo on it. It has no markings on it but previous owner said it was a Turbonetics T66 but I havent pulled turbo off of it yet to verify.

Im looking at a TO4S kit right now from Rx7store.net but I am not sure what route I want to take just yet...

Im looking for around 400hp.

I'd go with something from A-Spec (ZeroR) or turblown on here. They both fab up their own kits, specialize in turbos, and put out excellent products.

So, the car is already single turbo. And you want to replace everything? Is it a really shitty kit or what's the deal? Why not just replace the turbo with an hour of work and be done with it?

+1 for ASpec. Keep trying to reach them. They also give an awesome military discount.

Did you try calling him and/or PMing him on the forum? From what I remember Sean is a very busy man with a lot on his plate, but he's very courteous and turns out a phenominal product. I'll see if I can get him to pop in here.

If A-Spec falls through I'd def go with Elliot at Turblown. He makes some badass kits as well (from what I've seen, I don't have any personal experience with them) and also has the yummy inconel heat shield/blankets for your LIM.

Sweet, yeah if he could drop a line in here that would be great, I understand they are busy so Ill give it a few days, im still figuring out my options. A-Spec gets alot of praise so Ill wait to hear from them before I jump on anything. I havent tried to call yet, I guess I can give them a call tomorrow.


Well this turbo kit is pretty cheap...maybe Ill just buy this one..
