Thread: My RX7 FD3S Re-Amemiya Twin Turbo Build

Found this picture going through my computer from one of the last photoshoots i did of my car with a buddy of mine...

Re-editted it since i learned alot since then...i sure miss having my baby on the road, cant wait to get back behind the wheel!!

Nice job polishing the compressor housings, they look good. That accelerated warm up valve looks like a real PITA!

yup...19 years of hot ass intake temps had those screws in there good!!!

nothing that a good titanium drill bit couldnt fix though

finally some movement!!

Been polishing away now and i think i've gotten it looking pretty good

got a little half and half shot for you guys

also got my Full Function Engineering LIM Adapters for the secondary injectors
these things are awesome!!
they've got an o-ring around the outer edge and comes with a set to put on the injectors themselves
very good quality setup!

Nice ...

lol thats the whole "stance" scene thing

i had my sticker phase as well, but now its all about function!

got some more polishing work done, threw in a little before and after of the turbo housings

now just need to polish out the alternator, throttle body, and elbow

also i finally got my wing pedestals!!

also, heat management is everything in rotaries so i got some turbo blankets and hose heat shields for the oil return lines and OMP lines

Looking better and better man, nice work. As for heat management, you are spot on. I still can't believe how much weight is saved by changing the exhaust, but the heat that comes off a stainless one is bananas!

yup
thats why im happy i'm using the DEI Titanium wrap on the all the manifold/exhaust parts

that stuff is insane...after a full 30 min. track session i was able to whole handed grab my downpipe and hold it with that stuff on...it really is amazing stuff

supposedly it has some sort of lava rock material in it...i duno how true that is, but whether its that or magic...the stuff just works!!!
