Does any offer an upgrade for the 89-up Turbo II that looks like the factory turbo? Or perhaps uses a flange that will bolt to the factory exhaust manifold? I have searched all the links here, but I cant find anything. Any help is appreciated.

Why do you want one that "looks" like a stocker? They do make compressor upgrades that use the stock turbine housing, aka hyrbids. You can even get a bigger turbine put in, if you have the housing milled.

Who makes these Hybrids? I cant find anyone that sells a turbo like this. I am not very familiar with the RX-7 vendors. I have visited all the links provided by this site, but have not found any hybrids. A Garrett that mates to the stock turbine would be nice.

we did one with an 0 trim wheel in a stock s5 housing, it pulls hard. we looked at making an adaptor that put a t04 on an s5 manifold, but its just not practical

with ours we bored out the stock exhaust and compressor housings to fit and otrim and h trim turbine and compressor.



the problem with a s5-> t04 adaptor is that it eliminates the wastegate, and if you put the wb on the adaptor it gets more complex than just making a good manifold

Ok, I saw some turbo called a BNR stage 1-2-3 ect. It was garrett stuff that used the factory turbine housing. But I cant find a vendor for the 2g cars. I need it to keep the internal gate. I dont care if it keeps the stock compressor housing, I just need an upgrade that bolts to the factory exhaust mani. This sort of turbo has to exsist somewhere..........
