so you are saying that with the T04E I would need a new intercooler? Also what intercooler will work with this turbo because I plan on getting the HKS upgrade turbo kit and the Greddy intercooler 2 row. Will that work I plan on getting both at the same time. I have the bigger injectors to put in (720cc) I have the walbro fuel pump (plan on rewiring it soon). I have a S-AFC. Now will the Racingbeat down pipe bolt to this turbo? Thanks for you help I don't want to be stuck with parts that won't fit together, plus I am trying to learn.

the racing beat downpipe will NOT bolt to a t-04E...unless it's been fabricated to fit. Most aftermarket turbine's on RX-7's use the turbonetics V-Band style...very different than the racing beat dowpipe...

Now you might be better off with a T4/T3 Hybrid.. This would be a T3 Turbo with a T4 compressor.. They usually run ~$600 new. And can push ~350RWHP@15Psi. But this turbo should spool pretty quick..

Has anyone seen this, and what kind of performance can you expect ? http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...851057810&rd=1

ITEM DESCRIPTION: You are bidding on a 89-91 Mazda Turbo II Turbo that has been UPGRADED to a TO4 Garrett turbo. It has a .60 A/R compressor with a 3 inch inlet and a 2 inch outlet. Compressor wheel trim is 60. This turbo will bolt on directly to your stock manifold with NO MODS needed that's right NO MODS needed. This is a good way to modify your car without spending lots of $$$$ for a turbo due to the fact that it's a direct bolt on item. Turbo has new parts in it (seals, bearing, o-rings, compressor housing, etc.), and has zero miles on it after being built and never got put back on car. Turbo will spool fast because of the stock turbine housing that will recycle the exhaust faster. For questions (please ask before bidding) please send an e-mail to my business partner at gtkoni@yahoo.com
SHIPPING: Continental U.S. - Winning bidders please add $30 for insured UPS ground shipping. Hawaii, Canada, International - Exact cost of insured shipping to be determined at end of auction.

Does anybody know where I can get one of these turbos? I've seen the 20g kit, but nothing about the 25g. Any info on that would be greatly appreciated,

I say a hybrid with a stock hot side and 60-1 compressor side. quick spoolup and probably enough power for most of us.

you bought this beast? look at the size of that hot side.


anyone else who checks out this post with any turbo knowledge: how much power would a hybrid turbo with a stock hot side and a 60-1 compressor side make? (my recommendation above)

i don't know if it's the insane size of that picture or what, but that turbo looks pretty damned big. i would say (just a guess, probably not exactly right) that a hybrid with a 60-1 compressor would probably end up putting out 300-330ish whp. have you talked to the guys at bnr? they offer something like that and i'm sure if you give them a call they could make a better estimate based on trim levels, and your personal setup.

i think when i do my turboII swap, i'll just use the stock hotside and internal wastegate and all that ****. and get a hybrid 60-1 compressor side. sounds like the most bang for the buck to me.

yeah, that would be a cheap solution, but it might lag more than a whole new turbo.

My turbo, Pictured above by jacobcartmill is a .55 A/R front and a 1.32 A/R Hotside. As far as i know its not a hybrid, the intake is just under 3" and the exhaust is 3" There are some more pictures on my site, under members, under my name (chris)

What about the turbonetics 62-1 turbo with stock hotside? Seems like it would flow enough to make same as regular 60-1, with stock-ish lag . . .

Just a thought . . .










ok, I'll stfu now...

It used to be it wasn't worth the additional expense, but after checking the Turbonetics price list, the price difference in minimal.
