Default Put in a new single turbo RX7

Pulled out the EBAY turbo and swapped in a Borg Warner S366 turbo...alot bigger than the one I had in there previously.

Ran into a few issues with plumming the oil inlet but got everything worked out thanks to carlos. We ended up making a atmospheric dump for the wastegate instead of running it back into the downpipe for ease of taking the turbo out incase we need to take it out again. Currently im running into a issue with closing my hood all the way due to the huge size of the turbo and the intercooler piping bieng about a inch to tall... Did a couple pulls at 17 Psi and ran great. Did a couple pulls at 15 PSI and blew my intercooler piping off the turbo, so Im going to need to add another 3' coupling to it to make sure it doesnt happen again. Here are some pictures. ENJOY.
