![Question](https://www.rx7club.com/images/icons/icon5.gif)
Ive got an 87 T2 and have the engine out to rebuild. I want to put in 720 primary and 100 secondary injectors. I have a recing beat turbo back exhaust. I'm getting a new turbo manifold.
I also am getting a FMIC and upgading the cooling system alot.
WHAT TURBO SHOULD I GET?
I see everybody put in the T04S. I was thinking more on the lines of a GT35 or a GT42.
Any suggestions would help.
Thanx guys

I have a very similar set up as you.(87 TII, tubular manifold, FMIC, 720 primaries and 1000 secondaries) and I have a T04B. I cant remember off the top of my head what AR ratios but I do know that it has P-trim wheel. I push 14 PSI right now and it is great for street and around town driving, fully spools around 4500 RPM. I plan on putting it on a dyno again soon, but it made 289 hp at 8 PSI with stock primaries and 720 secondaries.

Sheesh, you guys are offering some crazy suggestions for a stock-ported S4 motor.
Get some form of a port while the engine is out (a decently increased flow streetport should suit you well unless you want to try and spool that GT42R reasonably), buy a standalone (Haltech, Microtech, whatever), and then you can think about a GT42R.

You need to determine your goals and a realistic budget.

Up and Coming,
You need to determine your realistic power goals, budget and purpose of the vehicle. I would suggest a To4E for street use. If you need some help I have our shop number in the link below.

why dont you leave your GT47R at home and go with a GT60 and be done with it. You might wana add a couple of extra rotors tho. a total of 4 should be sufficent.

Yea, I was planning on just having the car sit around for a while, while i save money. But im driving my sisters Buick Century until I get it finished. I'm tired of driving that POS around. So I just want to get it back together and them ill upgrade everything later. I wanna do some stuff jsut not EVERYTHING like i had planned. I just carved out the medium streetport last night. Im waiting on an apex seal and them i can get the block back together. Anybody know how to use the stock turbo(which has zero shaft play) to its best without getting a bunch of electronics or other upgrades. like maybe just the Rtek 1.5 or something. Thanks guys
