Vert build!

So I figured Id make a work log. Im joining the club.. Work will be starting soon on my rx7 that has been in storage for over 6months. Im ordering a BW s475 83mm t4 1.10, synapse 50mm wastegate, fuel sump, and various an fittings. Im having a forum member make me my manifold and I will be making the 5-4in downpipe. Also ordering a new fuel pump(was the limiting factor last time at dyno). Little undecided here so opinions are welcome. Thinking about a Weldon 1100-A. Has most supporting mods already. Streetport, 750/1600CC injectors(will probably upgrade to Injector Dynamics 1000/2000 in the near future), full turbo 2 drivetrain. Only thing Im concerned about is the clutch. Its a ACT 6puck sprung and lightweight flywheel. Want to upgrade to a twin disk soon. Ive had bad luck with act(its the second one). Thats all for now. Will update with pics as parts come in and work begins!

Suggestions on the turbine size are welcome. Also the cheapest place to get the turbo. I know forcedinductions but Ive heard bad things about how slow they ship and really want to get it done.

Taking fuel tank to be boiled tomorrow, then time to hack into it and weld the sump in. Then I will be running all the fuel lines. Also ordering Aeromotive a1000 regulator this week. Still waiting on turbo and manifold. Manifold should be done this week and turbo should ship this week.

Fuel sump. Shitty pics though. Hey does anyone know what the coating is on the tank? Just a undercoating or what? Also should I coat the inside of it or not? It is really clean.




And a couple for fun!
