hey

I just got my third rx7...but its my first turbo... it says trubo II

does turbo II mean twin turbo...or is that just a second revised version of the turbo?

I got quite a good deal on the car...and its a blast to own...

i will try and post pics when i can get my camera working with craptacular Vista...

anyways... my car is black on black leather, standard trans, bra, AR rims (see the site has them as a sponsor, good good) the most amazing thing to me about my new rx7 is the milage.... 63,500 miles
or 135,000 kms... to me that is very very low... engine seems tight, brakes are a bit squishy... but for the price I cannot complain...

u gotta b stupid!!!
if its a 3rd gen RX7 that says turbo II, its probably a 13B engine with a Sequential Twin Turbo...they get the same amount of boost as a normal TT, but the spool up time and Amount of Boost while changing turbos is a little slow...
a single tubo upgrade, like an Izamu RX6 from Apexi or a T78/T88 Upgrade from Greddy would give between a 200-400 hp increase and about 8-10 psi with few modifications...
p.s.: if you try to get a T88 or T78 upgrade, get the Hard Piping Kit, Pully Kit, and the FMIC (Front Mounted InterCooler to get a better feel and reply back to tell mi how it is cause im still not sure what to put on mine...THANKZ!!!
here is a pic...

No your stupid he said it was his 3rd rx7 not a 3rd gen....God your dumb....and to answere his question. Turbo II is a single turbo the II is just for marketing.
