Benifits Of The Rotary???Speed1Rx7 04-02-2004, 09:23 AM i just bought me 1990 Rx-7 GXL and i am very pleased with my purchase i was just wondering what are the biggest benifits of the rotary engine and can you add a turbo to non turbo engine if so does any one know where i can get a kit. racer_in_black 04-02-2004, 10:48 AM All you need to know is that it's one hell of an engine. Steel 04-02-2004, 11:49 AM No real benefiets, other than it makes a lot of power for its size. Adding a turbo to an N/A car CAN be done, but its expesnive and not very easy. I wouldn't recommend it. Just get used to the 7's awesome handling capabilities for now. When you decide you need (want :D ) more power, then you can consider buying a turbo II or doing a turbo II swap.

This is probably a better option financially for any non turbo, so when I get it all done I will post the dimensions of the brackets and pulleys so that if anyone else wants to do it it'll be a little easier.

Steel 04-02-2004, 06:10 PM Yeah, make sure you have enough fuel going into the engine when you force air down its throat. otherwise, POP! DevoutWankelist 04-03-2004, 02:35 AM Yeah, I plan on getting an fcd and the T2 injectors too, think that will be sufficient? Steel 04-03-2004, 02:38 AM mmm... maybe. As long as it doesnt boost over 7 pounds, i think you'll be ok. And with n/a rotors, you wouldnt want to boost any higher. Automotive Network, Inc., Copyright ©2012
