looking at my first rx7 which will be a series 3 turbo.
Got a few questions;
What is the most power/torque that can be extracted safetly out of the standard turbos and what bolt-ons do i need?
Also who is experienced in mapping them,i live in the midlands,thanks.

hello fello local type :wave
Erm power wise guess yer looking at under 400bhp but depends on a number of things really....
the basics you\'ll want ECU (power FC is usual weapon of choice & necessary for anything beyond induction & back box is the usual theory so put it high on yer list, in terms of mapping it etc the nearest & best bet is Pip at WGT up the M6 Northwich as per http://www.wgtautodevelopments.co.uk/ (http://www.wgtautodevelopments.co.uk/)
Lettice no if i can help any.......

yeah that\'s absolute best with a totally fresh engine & quite a few mods more like 320-350 with just a basic zaust & ECU i guess......& may need to look at fueling with a big ass straight thru exhaust, many run the twins non sequentially as a plan but anyhow as i say expect low 300\'s with just the basics i guestimate............

Ryan as a indication i would say with very basic upgrades you\'re looking around 300bhp, if you wanna go all the way with twin turbo setup then you will prob max out at 360 - 400 bhp.

Oh and welcome to the club, and remember theres only one team in the midlands SUPER SUPER RAMS !!!!!!
