It looks pretty meaty! Can you get any other pics? Perhaps from above or the side? Like Fish said, get the dude to write down all of the markings on the compressor housing etc. The turbo\'s tucked down really low, I wonder what the clearance is like? Compressor looks a bit like a T04S or a T-70.

as a newbie to the rx7, is a t66 a good size turbo for the car?
will it give me lots of turbo lag???

:confused:

It is 100% a TO4R, similar to a T66 p-trim, but has a slightly bigger inducer, 66 compared to 66.7mm for the TO4R
