I'm an adult, lol...but its funny because everywhere I go..I get carded...and when you loose a license, you cant go anywhere https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...DIR#>/wink.png



Luckily I got my restricted license now...so thats all cleared up. The guy w/ the sandals was my buddy Jon, but I was wearin sandals too...lol, it was like 90+ and humid as hell, I didn't wanna wear pants AND shoes, I had to cool down somehow.



And yes, the car should be fast soon. I'm gonna pull the motor apart tom prolly to see what happened. I had planned on just rebuilding it and saving as an extra, but just by quick look and guessing...I don't think the rear rotor/housing are in reusable condition...so I'll probably part the motor out for whatever I can get..and I'll have the rear rotor & housing polished for a display piece, lol...
As long as the plates are good you'll have an "investment." https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/smile.png

The side housings. People around here call them plates. I've started saying it because it's fewer words than side housings. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...#>/biggrin.png

If I were you I would do a LARGE streetport on the spare housings.

Lol, ok...people down here still say sidehousings, lol https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...DIR#>/wink.png





A larger streetport..hmm...I will see how the side housings look when I get them apart...maybe I'll have them bridgeported for when the new block blows(hopefully it wont for a while)..a bridgeported BIG turbo https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...#>/biggrin.png I think I need to go change my pants https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...#>/BURNOUT.gif

You must not know too much about turbos.

Rotaryman88 07-21-2002 03:59 PM
Well...I think it will spool just fine, lol. Ya gotta remember Rx7s have hella exhaust gas pulses...a stock motor spools a stock turbo really quick, so a modified motor will spool a bigger turbo quickly too...I'm not worried https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...#>/biggrin.png

The typical big turbo will make full boost at a higher RPM than stock, but the powerband will extend much higher, well past 8-9K. A stock turbo craps out at about 6-7K. A friend of mine has an HKS TO4E kit on a big streetport, and the turbo starts to choke the motor a little at high RPM.
