What if I were to turbo a 1984 1st gen... What upgrades would I need to do, or does this Rotary engine take the pressure as is?

oh, and the turbo... maybe a TO3, maybe bigger... don't know yet... just a question.

I dont care what peopel say aotu the compression on a 12A ..how you need lower compression rotors..etc..etc.



rxpower brother has a car that is 12A turbo and runs 9s or 10s?

I seen it at NOPI when it came to FL...



I was gonna do a 12A turbo ...

heres the problems I ran into...



Finding someone to make a 12A turbo manifold....and I did....for $300. and hes the best in this area...



then you need to decide on your set up if you want it to blow through the carb ..or in the intake...The blow through on the carb is easier...BUT you need to get your carb redone so it can take the boost from the turbo..and theres a guy locally who does it...



You know you will need a high pressure fuel pump...get an inline one...

Some people pin thier engines...depending on how much boost and HP you think...you will be running.its for saftey precauitions..



I think a t03 will be ok if your running stock inside (not ported) unless its a highbrid and you didnt say how much HP your exopecting...I have talked to alot of peopel about this and they tell me to run a t60 or bigger...I even had a guy tel me to run a T72...



Keep in mind..the bigger the more $$$$$$$$.....



I saw on a web site where they made a t3 hybrid and it was suppose to be good for 350 hp..thats good for a first gen if you dont want to over do it...thats all i really want...350+ hp but no less than 350...
