I am not aware of any Rx-7 even in position of the turbo, let alone running...

8374 would be the route to go for a street driven car...

I'd like to try one out, but holy $$$ batman. For what they cost you can buy 2 airwerks turbos and 2 external gates.

Their production has been put back due to their previous supplier of turbine housings. The 7670 and 8374 should be shipping within two weeks Im told, and the 9180 soon after that.

The thing to remember is many of the turbos have internal wastegates, and all have compressor recirc valves, both of which are money saving items. They are also billet compressor wheeled, and have ceramic DBB which will make them much more durable than the Airwerks line. While Im a big fan of the Airwerks turbos, they simply are not as durable as a Garrett DBB.
