Get the turbo rebuilt... thats what im doing... it should come out to around $350 ... dont know who you have in Pakistan but Majestic turbo in Texas, USA is amazing.

Dont ever go for the ebay turbos... there royal pieces of ****.

Personally id go for the GT35R kit... fast responce and great power.... if you need more power... go for the T04Z

Most every FMIC will do... just search around on the link I gave you

 

You should just get yours rebuilt, if you get a different turbo you should need a tune. How much boost is the car tuned for? How much boost do you plan on running?

 

thanks a lot for replyin guys....see slight problems...first of all nobody knows how to rebuild a turbo so thats not an option...theres only one dyno in the country!! but thats in my city so im lucky there :P ....lemme explain in full detail what the problem is...i bought my fd abt 2 weeks ago off a guy who got a single turbo conversion...prob is im gettin boost of abt 5psi in the first gear, second it shoots up to 9 and it continues to drop and third once again its around 6psi and continues to drop...thats why i wanted to replace the turbo...see how it goes in pakistan is we just get the turbo and we get the manifolds and pipings made locally...so what i plan on doing is gettin just a turbo off ebay....now since u guys have said the ebay turbos suck where do u think i cud get just a turbo? and which turbo should i get cuz im supremely confused here...i got a guy here sellin a T28 and a ihi rhcb4 but arent those small turbos? I just want a reliable turbo that i can run at around 8-10psi making somewhere ATLEAST 220whp...i need some serious guidance here cuz nobody knws anythings abt rotaries in pakistan...if i **** up the engine ima have to import a new engine :S

P.S i dont have much of a budget!! :S im buyin an AVCR today gonna try n hold the boost through that...reckon itll work?

Thanks a mil...

 

We need more information from you. What other mods does the car have? What turbo is on the car now? What ecu do you have in the car?

If you are on a limited budget and there are no tuners that know how to tune rotaries in Pakistan then your only cost effective option is to get your turbo rebuilt. The last thing you want to do is throw on a bigger turbo and let someone who has no idea how to tune a rotary give it a shot. If you do that you will most likely be looking for an engine replacement shortly after, and that may not fall into your budget.

If your car has an aftermarket ecu and is already tuned for the current turbo you won't have to deal with any of that. You would just reinstall the rebuilt turbo and be done.

 

aiite man u can probably tell im a noob when it comes to this...all i cud find on the turbo written was HT189...i talked to the owner he seems like a nut he claims this turbo is off the 20b....car is completely stock otherwise...its a 96 rx7 type rb "limited edition" engine seems fine...im getting a really rich smell....like i said max boost i get is 9psi and one point then it just starts dropping....car is REALLY slow right now...i raced rolling against a friend's acura euro-r (has a k20a in it) second gear i was ahead by a car 3rd gear my car wud rev like a snail past 6000rpm and by that time his vtec kicked in n he was gone... im really confused abt this turbo....theres a pretty good tuner here in my city....he deals in pistons though...hes tuned 800hp evo's, 545WHP civics, 700whp supra...we've got em all here just not rx7's...hes pretty excited though he thinks he can try n make the boost hold with a boost controller....i asked him abt rebuilding the turbo like u guys said but he said he cud try but he wont be able to make it work...hes insisting i buy $1000+ turbos but i aint got that kinda money man....if theres anything specific u need to ask me i can tell u but this is all ive got so far...car's stock except for the single turbo conversion.....theres oil outside the turbo as well which makes me wonder whether its a seal leak...theres a lot of oil on the pipe from the turbo towards the hood if u knw what im sayin...HELP!!!!

 

BUMP BUMP BUMP!!! help me out guys!!!
