Thanks Francois that is pretty close to what we are guessing at.
I think Dave Leonard is going with the same compressor wheel and housing.
It will be good to see the new performance data. If it works out I will
get mine modified as well :) Did you have to space the turbo out to
accommodate the larger compressor wheel?

Who modified the turbo for you?

Dave who did yours?

BTW Francois got any pictures of that mounted turbo tach circuit.
I can't quite
figure out how it is mounted from just looking at the pictures on the
Spanish manufactures web site.

Francois,

I found this turbo map on a website, if it is true to it's label this is the
stock series 5 turbo.  Thought you could use it.  I am having mine upgraded
by the RX-7 store, they are putting on the TO4 60-1 compressor wheel that
you noted is too close to the surge line. You are right, but at least it is
better than the stock turbo.  I will only be using it temporarily until I
can install my other turbo, sitting in my hangar, and here is it's map.
This is the TO4B V-trim with a .96 A/R turbine.  The upper end of those
lines are running the turbo at about 6100[0] rpm, 18000 feet, and 40" MAP.  This
should yield quite an impressive TAS.

Dave Leonard

Hope to see you at Sun & Fun entered in the Sun 100 race Dave.
