My skills and knowledge applied to her... 100% DIY

Here it is people the long awaited post of my Mazda rx-7. Just before I start out , this car was purchased solely for the goal of ultimate horsepower , never have i never thought I will tune and build up a car of this scale myself especially a rotary engine which everyone seems to think of being "sensitive".

Here is the the specifications when I first bought the car(modified by David , previous owner)

MK5 reman engine 13bt from mazda
apex-i avcr
apex'i itc
HKS AIC
2x 650cc primary injectors
2x 550cc secondary injectors
2x 550cc additional injectors
Greddy 3 core intercooler
Greddy RACE bov
Garrett T04R (1.15 a/r)
Greddy oil pressure
Greddy fuel pressure
Greddy egt
autometer boost gauge
8 point roll cage
Moroso battery box
generic oil catch can
MSD ignition
NGK plugs
K&N air filter
Kosei racing 17" wheels
tokico blue shocks
RSR springs
5 pt camlocks harness
Racing Beat dual exhaust

car ran high 12's for previous owner and dynoed 350rwhp on 0.8 bar with race gas.


the setup above is pretty alright but just not what i need for daily driver , and a drift/track car cause the turbo spool time is crazy it gets spooling only by 4000 and full boost of 0.8 bar around 5700rpm till 8000rpm.......thats very late for my taste kinda like when it kicks in its like being rammed by a truck and i get crazy fish tailing car.

To top it all up , the car is getting bad gas mileage and for a rotary i still think a stand alone computer on the car is necessary thus i went ahead to yank out the whole car and re-do it to my taste.

Pictures will be coming soon to show the BEFORE , In between and AFTER stage , it's going to be a long post of my dear "Annabelle"
