Does anyone run anything like this? im thinking or building a kit up ho much would it cost to uprate the internals to a good spec?
 
also im looking at the gt35r kit, as its quite cheap new from rx7 store, but do you think its best to buy a second hand kit, for say 700 quid or new i think its 11000 quid or something on the rx7 store,
 
as always any opinions would be very useful:mmmm:mmmm

does not look like a legit T70, looks like a chinese copy, it will fall apart in about 500 miles or if you try and put some boost through it, mapped one with this turbo, felt quite average, he ran it at 1 BAR for about 200 mile afterwards then it fell apart lol the front compressor wheel just simply fell off lol

Makes good power like 400+ rwhp @ 1 Bar
