New Wheels

I decided I had enough of the 17" Re-Amemiya alloys... although they were really nice I wanted 18" and a wider dish... luckily a set came up for sale and I did a swap with my old alloys... I like the Gold / White colour scheme and the tyres grip exceptionally well with 285 at the back!

New Turbo

Had a long think about what kind of power I wanted and the characterisitcs I wanted from the car. I eventually decided to go for a Garrett T60-1 BB with a rear housing of 1.3 a/r . This turbo will give me good spool up time and over 400rwhp, which is exactly what I wanted. The good thing is that this turbo will fit on my HKS T4 manifold, all I will need to get made up will be the downpipe. It will make full boost from an estimated 3500 rpm and continue giving power all the way to redline 9000 rpm. The large rear housing will allow high boost and continous power from mid to high rev range. One thing my old T04e lacked was making power after 65oo rpm, it just felt flat after that, this turbo should hopefully fix that problem.

More Fuel Required

Just had these delivered from RX7Store.net... these will be required when I increase the boost... An excellent bit of kit and highly recommended!
