If not... (and don't take this as shooting you down, I just can't understand) please explain what benefit you believe 4" piping would have on a low displacement engine? I think its pretty much been beat into the ground that most engine of the sport compact type are right at home with a 3" and on rare occassions 3.25". Maybe I'm missing something... (I doubt it, but maybe)

They're are plenty of Supra's (the majority you see dyno-queening 1000+RWHP have them, contrary to what you probably think) running between 5-7 inch exhausts.
Now, put into this equation, the fact that RX-7's push out a LOT MORE exhaust than you're average piston engine.
FAIL.

Just got another 84 gsl on ebay from waldorf, will be parting out what i don't need most likely, body seems to be in better shape than my 83 so i will be keeping the 84 and the better of the mechanicals from the two.. let me know if anyone needs any parts from a fb gsl, owner said it needs apex seals and o rings but we'll see. time to start wrenching..
oh yeah! Merry christmas, Happy Chanukah, and Happy kwanzza

yeah, 13B's only displace 1.3L, but they pull in as much air per rev as a piston engine that's 2.6L... (In fact, that's how you set up the megasquirt when you're setting it up... as a 4 cyl 2.6L engine with 2 injectors). With a big turbo there's a lot of air going in so a large exhaust pipe makes a lot of sense to me.
I know of guys with turbocharged 20v 4age engines (1.6L) with 3 inch pipes...

Hey err, Ken..
You might be the wrong person to ask for this (I was directed to Theo by Jason, but he didn't answer)..but uh, will there be any Plug-N-Play Megasquirts for sale soon? My car will be completely finished in about 2 weeks, and er, it won't run the AUX ports without a MSnS, lol!
I really really need it, very soon..

Uh, whats going to tell the air pump to turn on? MSnS takes over the control of what an RPM switch would do. I don't want to buy an RPM switch, only to then get an MSnS which makes it worthless..

Buy one and usse a custom harness, or run without Aux ports for the time being.

The best exhaust for the job would be one that allows your turbo to spool the quickest without blowing your eardrums in the process.
I already have a complete 3 inch turbo back setup now and some of the top tuners I have talked to seem to think that a full to4 is limited by just a 3 inch exhaust setup. If you have noticed in the last to years, 400rwhp used to be the bench mark of a turbo rotary. What a 60-1 used to do at 20lbs with race gas a newer line of turbo these days does at 15lbs and on pump 93. But in the last year with guys starting to go the way of the supra owners and try the larger down pipes and full exhaust systems they are starting to see 500 and up where they used to only get 400.
Worst case is that it doesn't work and I have to go back to the 3. Thats the beauty of having money for R&D.

However, it'd be good if you supplied a broken stock ECU with the same connector configuration as your car as we still have no supplier for new ones.
