fpr = fuel pressure regulator

and I don't know how you came up with a PFC costing only $200. You can probably get one used for about $5-700 and a new one for around $1000

Don't bother, this guy made another thread about the same thing, and than copied and pasted EXACTLY what other ppl posted with no thought process inbetween.

To the OP (thats you Mazdabill):

-tell us what kind of turbo you have? Specs?
-what manifold are you using?
-what kind of intercooler setup did you purchase?
-what do you plan to use the car for?
-why do you think you need/want 500hp?


Once you give us some real info, and some sort of thought processing proof we can probably help. Also, SEARCH.

thanks!

I'm very new to the rotary. For years, I've loved the idea, concept, look and every thing about the 3rd gen rx7. It is a dream car, for me. Eventually, I want it to be show room ready. Yes, it will be awhile, but I will not give up, I will have it. As far as the list goes, yes, I did paste some, but I researced all of the prices. So, there was a thought process. Anyway, I will get back to this post with all details of your questions. Yes, I know, I should already know this. And thanks, I'm grateful of your time and input

Alot of your prices seem off to me boost controllers new are around $300-400

Upgraded exhaust is $450-600 just for catback another $200-300 for downpipe and midpipe though

dual oil coolers are around $800 new i dont know about used

A good upgraded fuel pump would be $200 at least

Power FC is $700-1000

New fuel system lines injectors rails would be about $1000

So that changes the cost a little bit I would suggest you do more research on prices before you move to far ahead. Just my little bit of advice good luck with the project though.
