dirt cheap 93 si hmt setup
ben thinkin about this for a few months and wanted to make sure the car was solid enuff to play with. well 3 months and its still runs great 
.
i was going to use a t25 or 14b when i found them but this rx7 turbo fell in my lap. and just so happen my friend had the adaptor plate already made from when he was going to use it 3 or so yrs. ago.
i have a ching chang mani that a friend of myne welded up really fukin good but i still dont think its gonna be enuff and given the wieght of the turbo im using i dont wanna chance it. so i gotta either talk him in to letting me borrow the stainless miniram he has or brace the ching chiong mani somemore somehow.lol.
i dont really wanna use an intercooler because i would have to buy it and at 8 #'s i really dont see hte need for it if i pull timing and run 93.
the exhaust it stock and will prolly stay that way minus hte fart can it has. maybe i will keep the fart can iunno.
pics to come real soon like when i get to work in a few hours.lol.
gotta do some research on the turbo neverreally read about them before.
gonna be street tuned on crome with wideband.
any suggestions other than add pics and ****.

i was hoping i could get away with about 8 #'s without one. hmmm. i mean even if i did use a dsm sidemount it wouldnt get the airflow it needs. at least i wouldnt think it would. in the future i would like to get a water/air intercooler and use it as charge piping.
just got off the fone with my friend with the miniram and we gonna do some tradin and i got a nice manifold and a turbo now just run the exhuast and im amost golden.
got pics also. heres the turbo
and here she is got her for a decent price.
and just cuz im bored his my friends corvette motor in a jag. fully built bottom end 3 inch exhuast and air to water intercooler. hes gonna run about 20#s to start off and then go from there and probably upsize the turbo shortly. sweet *** ride

Re: dirt cheap 93 si hmt setup
is the sidemount really gonna help any. i mean i know they put them on dsms stock but ---- i dont really think it would get any airflow at all during city driving. i dont know i guess i will just have to find one and check it out.
