First off, VERY NICE JOB on your rx7! I was reading your turbo install and I noticed that your future plans were in the t3t4 hybrid area. I have to be honest, I am a little apprehensive about taking on a project like that with so little time on my hands. Anyway, more to the point, a month or so ago I had plans to turbo my 87 na, I bought a 21x12x3 fmic, as well as a t3 super60, greddy cast iron manifold, and trust external wastegate (all used except the intercooler)...with plans of turboing the car, I've put all my suspension in and and now all I really want to do is drive the car. I guess I was just curious if you were interested in buying them off me, I'm not trying to make any money I just want to break even, let me know if you're interested.
If you're not interested, would you recommend doing the upgrade with these parts, I have access to the pipe bender, mig and tig welders, and all the machine shop a little boy could want... I just don't have that much time (full time student, full time employee). I look forward to hearing from you.

Do you have any data on that intercooler? Who made it, where are the inlet/outlets, and cost?
As for whether or not to use these parts...I don't know anything specific about that turbo..Is it the venerable "60-1" as indicated by it's name? If so, then that's a lot of turbo for a "first timer".

2.5" inlet and outlet, I bought it from Reddog motorsports (ebay), there's no tag on the intercooler itself so I would classify it as a 'noname brand'
- here are some specs that the seller of the turbo stuff gave me, if you could give me your experienced opinion on them I would be very thankful....
-Just in from Japan.
A genuine GReddy / TRUST turbo manifold,
Type S Waste Gate, and a T3 Garrett Super 60,
for the RX-7 13B engine.
It has a T4 to T3 flange adaptor, and Waste Gate extension tube.
This is a cast iron manifold, and damn near indestructible !!
This manifold is in Excellent condition,
and the turbo was kitted before being put in storage.
The T3 super 60 has the same inducer diameter as the popular T3/T4 conversions.
Compressor spec.: 1.9" inducer, and .50 A/R.
Turbine spec.: 2.26 exducer, and .63 A/R.

$291 plus shipping for the intercooler
$769 plus shipping for the turbo stuff (package)
I would like to sell it as a package thing, because what am I going to do with half the stuff.

I don't think that turbo is suitable. It's just to small...
I'm not personally interested in the parts, but I'm sure you will be able to sell it if you head over to http://www.rx7club.com . They have a For Sale section that you can post in.

Without knowing the exact specs off hand of the stock unit, I can't be certain. But the stocker is already considered to be a "large" T3. Unless what we're just looking at is a "60-1" compressor...
