Hey Dwayne, A spec sells it. It's a variant of the GT35R T4, with different internals and the capability to run up to 30 psi or so.

Here's a link to some dyno results:

https://www.rx7club.com/showpost.php...4&postcount=13

and a link with more info (pricing on page 2):

https://www.rx7club.com/showthread.p...1&page=1&pp=15

I was extremely happy with the level of customer service Sean and Ryan over at A spec provided, especially to another shop owner, lol. Speedy service, good communication, fair prices

its a Garret GT35R turbo that Aspec Tuning basically bored out to put in bigger turbine wheels.

you can get it from Aspec Tuning (www.a-spec.com) or PM ZeroR (Sean) on this forum.... he runs the shop.

i belive its around $3500 for the kit..... comes with everything... and the manifold and downpipe have a lifetime guaretee....... Aspec is a trusted place... great vendor.

PM Zero R here on the forum, or call up A spec. I can't imagine they have a manifold fabricated for an R100, though.....

It's quite a bit bigger than your standard 35R. It has the potential to run 30 psi, so you know it's got a healthy compressor wheel . To hear the exhaust, there is a sound clip on page 19.

so just call sean and ask him to sell it to you. as long as he's making a profit on the turbo there's no reason why he won't sell it to you, he does run a business after all.

No dyno #s yet, a lot depends on tuning and the weather.

Rich you should expand that front shroud to go all the way across it would look a tad bit sweeter than the sweetness it already is :P

You know, that's a good question. I ask myself that all the time.


Honestly, I have no idea when. I'm trying to get the whole 'career' thing going first...then toys will come later. By the way, the finish looks good. Your engine bay looks so much cleaner without all the stuff cramped in there! Well done.

Update, just received my black samco silicone couplers I was waiting on---2.5 inch for the 120 degree greddy bend off the compressor, 2.5 to 2.75 reducer for the bend to the hotside ic pipe, and 2.75 inch for the cold side ic pipe to greddy elbow. I am *still* waiting on some backordered spring-loaded t-bolt clamps for the hot side piping......

one sized for a 2.5 inch pipe and one for a 2.75 inch pipe. Thanks for the offer, I think my clamps are in the mail now. I just wish winter would hurry and leave so that I can DRIVE the car again

Here is the first of about 5 vids I took this weekend. This was running with the boost controller off, so 12 psi spring creeping to 14 psi. I didn't launch, just rolled into it---the surface was kind of rough and the traction wasn't all that great. (to get sound you need to play it in windows media player:
