This is for my 1988 Rx-7 Turbo. T04S 60 trim, about a 3" exducer on the compressor wheel. Hotside A/R is .96 , compressor side is .70. It will bolt up to an HKS undivided cast manifold and use a 50mm external wastegate.

this turbo usually does about 380-390 on a 93-95 Rx-7 at about 1 bar of boost. I'm hoping for similar numbers, and possibly more since I plan for race gas. This will not actually go on the car probably until the end of the summer after I have installed a Power FC standalone and 1680cc secondary injectors. But I got the kit pictured there for $900 shipped, including that brand new turbo and wastegate (manifold and oil lines were used). It was a hell of a deal IMO. For now I will stay on the stock turbo (with recently ported wastegate to prevent catastrophic boost spikes).

I've thought about this whole turbo upgrade thing a long time... I was thinking about getting my stock turbo sent off to shop and turned into a hybrid, but that would cost as much as I spent on this kit with less potential.

Actually, a friend of mine has a blown rear rotor from his 94 (complete with missing apex seal and all) just sitting in his garage. I'm sure he'd be willing to part with it. I think he has the cartridge from the primary turbo that the apex seal grenaded as well.
