Bear with me guys, I'm doing this installation on my own time. The shop is incredibly busy getting our customers cars ready for the upcoming Revolution. I'm staying after hours for the next few days to get the turbos in, along with some fuel and a 6-puck clutch.

Who needs sleep anyhow????????????

Where are you getting the idea of "alot of money?!" Try going to rx7store.net and you'll see this kit is offered at a DAMN good price!

They will be offering the same kit with upgraded turbo options. I'm going with dual GT3071R's on mine, with an equal length runner manifold and external wastegates, wich is being made my John (LT1-7)

Are we going to have GB on the turbo kit? Would this kit work with after market SMIC?

There already was. No one seemed to be interested. I think the dyno will clear that up though.
