You got a large turbo and large fuel delivery system... You're planning on not modifying/rebuilding the internals at all on an engine with who knows how many miles on it... and you live in el paso where it's like 100 degress or more 5 months out of the year. Is this going to be a daily commuter car too?
On a more serious note, with what you've mentioned, I'd guess there's going to be a slim chance of passing emissions, but that depends on the state of the cat and the o2 sensor etc etc and you'd have to have a super lean fuel map.

There is not dependable 480whp turbo rotary setup, well unless your idea of dependable is 5-20k miles between rebuilds. It is a give an take just like any other car, the more power, the less reliability and comfort. The rotary is even more finicky than any other car on the road.

But getting 406 hp would have to be on a "track/race" boost map. You'd want to have something more conservative for daily driving (say 4 psi lower boost) if you're going to make the eninge last. Honestly though, with 57k on the internals, you should probably just rebuild it because it won't last through this summer if you put that big turbo on it.

dependable and emissions legal will put you at about 300 hp in the state of texas. a rotary usually won't pass emissions in texas without a cat, so that would limit it a lot as far as boost. 300 hp will also only be dependable if the set up is tuned right. a bad afr at 300 will get torn up.
our cars are not exactly notorious for reliability when the modding starts.

This thread is hilarious .
Why 480? why not 475? emissions legal aint gonna happen on a 2 rotor much over 300 to the wheels.
Take your FD to either rotary performance or gotham racing (both in the dfw area) and write them a blank check.

the t88 is old news i was asking about the t04z as i am new to the rotary cars and gave them benefit of the doubt that it could handle more then a piston engine im starting to think this fd might have been a bad idea with the way you huys are talking seems like its all bad but none the less i was asking for help on what kind of internal mods should i need to get me into this range i was not asking for you to make fun of this thread.......

And you seem to be forgetting that this is a 1.3L motor. Yea it's a rotary, but still... 1.3L! Do you know how much the honda guys with a B16 would have to do to get 400 hp at the wheels in a package that's even remotely streetable? Can you say down payment on a house?
Check out pineapple racing's site, they have some interesting stuff and prices for rebuilds and ports. Plus they have some vids going over rotary engine stuff. You could probably find out a little bit more about what you're into with the FD.

i, personally prefer garrett turbos if you want to look into that. the gt35 series is a good, daily style turbo, or you could go bigger with something like a gt40 or gt42. all very streetable and reliable. they are also water and oil cooled like the stock turbo and are dual ball bearing instead of journal style like some other turbos.
