From: Faster than most.....from 7,000 miles away

ya know.......just because a turbo is capable of 600 hp....... doesn't mean you have to drive w/ it at full boost all time... smoother power delivery is what i'd be after.
I'm getting the single fora few reasons. One is that all the piping is there, all I need is an intercooler. It's piped from the manifold, full exhaust and full intercooler piping. Second is that I'll be able to tune it easier and more people have experience with a single setup. Third is that the manifold is a standard T04 flange, so I can upgrade to whatever I want (within reason) in the future.
Eric, thanks for the chart, I couldn't find anything out about it.

ALL racing rx7s I've seen in person are using single. I know I haven't seen all that many (at least not as many as you rx7 guys), but that's what I see most. So I say single.
Someone say GT35?

manifolds (those are soooo dope!) and custom downpipes.The HKS ball-bearing turbos do cost a grip; but I think they're worth the price; especially if I can get them a little cheaper by getting them str8 from Japan. I just don't know if the entire setup will bolt up to my car w/out modification, since it's made for a RHD car.

I am looking at what will give me the most power thru a broad range. My car is and always will be a street car; so my setup has to be practical. I think last time I was comparing, my best bet was HKS GT's w/ some
