Definately port it!!!



And personally if it was me I would keep them sequential. IMO if you want real big power go single. You can get 350-400hp out of the sequential system. The twins are limited power wise by the flow of the manifold along with the massive heat they will build up and there is nothing you can do about that. I also don't like having to drive around at 4000rpms to build any boost worth talking about, but that is just me.




i can make 350whp running them sequential? i thought when you got into the mid upper 300's on the stock twins you had to run them non seq to make great power.. well my setup will be more focused for the strip with some street and road driving so id want to max out my car in that type of field... what is better to drag with seq, or non seq? and what is funner to drive around town with??? that should answer my questions for what i want.

non-seq for drag.. why you might ask? Well, most likely you will launch at high RPM and by the time you shift, you'll still be high enough RPM so that you don't have to worry about spool. Before you might ask another question, you'll hit full boost around 3500-4500 RPM with non seq. (maybe 4750? who knows... its been awhile since I've rode in a non-seq car).



This should also answer why its not as streetable as seq set up.

I thought that to for a while. I've heard from a few people on rx7club that are running 350+ non-seq. haven't heard of any 400+ though. I think most people just don't want to or are afraid of the transition, but if it doesn't spike very much then there is nothing to worry about.



But in all honesty you need to look at boost levels and not hp numbers. You can get 350 with a good tune and port while running no more than 12psi. If you plan on running say 15+psi I would go non-seq. I think the transition would be horrible(or I guess a huge kick in butt), and I'm not sure how the solenoids would handle 15+psi.
