Juddz you should really look a bit closer before answering..He wants mazda wheels to look stock, and he already owns the stereo equipment

 

the lug pattern statement is true, however, saying "any wheel you want" is a stretch....Mazda's really need hubcentric wheels and honda's use lugcentric wheels

 

And consider the WOMP or a proven turbo kit. It is good that you are at least putting together a plan for the finished prodcut!

 

To the guy who is asking about my sanity and funds situation. I don't plan on going out this afternoon and buying everything I have on this list. I'd rather get it together on paper than walk into the next Pepboys and buying out all the plastic spinners I see. I don't pretend to know everything. That's why I'm here. To learn how to do it the right way, with the right stuff. I did make a comment to the money problem in my first post. It was sarcastic though, I apologize for the miscommunication.

Please excuse my ignorance, but If I get a turbo kit does it come with everything I need or will I need to get a blow off valve, or any other miscellanious parts?

I was questioning the ECU, because in a '94 RX-7 it is vital to the life of the engine to upgrade your ECU any time you upgrade the turbos, midpipe, downpipe, etc. So I just assumed it would be necessary to look into it. If not then I won't worry about it. It might just be a wankel thing.

 

By the way ebay does wonders with factory parts. Check it out. Private sellers are always cheaper than dealers.

 

What turbo kit are you looking at. They aren't all the same.

In any car INCLUDING a rotary it is vital you upgrade your FUEL MANAGEMENT when upgrading existing turbo or adding a turbo aftermarket, this does not necessarily mean an ECU upgrade. That isn't the only way to do it. So no it's NOT a wankel thing

 

Yeah I was looking at Turbonetics. Like a T3 or something. Again, I'm not sure about what is best so any info I could get from you guys would be great! So your ECU does not regulate Fuel Management. Gotcha. So if I get a Turbo I need to get a Fuel Management system, NOT an upgraded ECU.

Sorry for all the Noob stuff but it's all about doing it right. Anyone know of a place in Atlanta to go and look around, or get questions answered?

Thanks.

 

man i feel like an idiot! there is a huge mazda place in atlanta....i just forgot where! i have to ask jason, he told me about it.

 

what do you mean hubcentric??????? cause i was looking into wheels and i want to know all the factors i need to consider.

 

Another words if you don't ask for MAZDA wheels just because it has 4x100 bolt pattern you might end up with the wrong wheels. So ask!

 

a few quick pointers...

#1. Wagner Motorsports makes turbo kits witrh the Garret and Turbonetics series of turbo's. If you want a T3 turbo Wagner can set you up with a complete including everything you'd need for 160-180whp for about $3200.

#2. Wheels. Buy steelies...you know winter beater rims...they look stock and lame but are SUPER light. Also, when you have steelies on people usually don't notice if you're running drag radials or super sticky tires.

#3. SAVE UP YOUR MONEY AND DO IT ALL AT ONCE. Buying things in pieces will ensure that you end up forgetting stuff and never get your build 100% complete.

#4. no turbo kit will be a sleeper...they whistle and woosh too much to keep it a secret.

 

And also very strong & stiff...
