Ok I know an automatic N/A RX-7 is a slow azz bucket of a car. I am going to make my car mostley for looks now mabey later on i will do an engine swap or something of the sort for performance reasons, but for now im not. If i want to have some boost like below 5-6 PSI would it be to difficult to do? I want to keep it auto cause it is more comfortable to drive till I go performance where I would go manual. What in general would I need to do and modify to accomdate the added boost?

your car is a convert. too right? those are a lot heavier than our homie's gxl here too.

Well, if you want to go with a high boost turbo, I'd actually stick with the automatic. If your current tranny is fucked, get a new one, and strenghten it, add a cooler. Turbo and automatic complement themselves, you don't loose any boost, and that's a good thing. But, I hear mazda automatics arent too great.

Just my two cents. ;p

Get a jspec s4 with the auto transmission and dump it in your car. use s4 t2 ecu, afm, and pressure sensor. then let us know.

if it works out I might do it as well.

Your car will already have the auto transmission mounts, auto cpu, and radiator.
